Shocker!!

Alaska' governor is going to be McCain's VP?? WOW!

Alaska is on the map! And not just for Republican corruption! Woot!

This election just got a whole hell of a lot more interesting.

Cool! I wonder if this means the candidates will actually make it to Alaska, for once.

Choosing a woman was a pretty smart move.

It got a hell of a lot more scary, that's for damn sure.

She has the same problem that Obama has: No experience, which could be a good thing. Her conservative values scare me, and that is a huge deal for me personally.
I've heard some rumors that it wasn't his choice at all, apparently even Karl Rove was trying to talk him out of it. And if that is true then I would assume she was picked for shock value which is a stupid reason. She's not going to gain any more support for him, I doubt Hillary supporters will vote for him because of Palin.

She wants to kill polar bears

yeah how crazy is that?! I wanted to ask you about her... Ive never heard anything about her besides what the pundits are scambling to figure out this morning... I confess her conservative stance on some things scares me too, but I suppose I wouldnt expect a non-conservative to be selected.

what do you think about he Alaskan drilling thing?

i can't figure out if i think this to be a strategic and gutsy move or a stupid one. i mean, who is this woman again? one of mccain's biggest criticisms of obama was obama's inexperience. now he has a governor with 2 years under her belt as his running mate? before she became the governor she was a mayor of a town with a population of 6,000. *baffled*

eh. if nothing else, the road to election day is going to be mighty interesting.
