We'll see come Nov 4. Romney would have been a horrific choice. At least I can vote for McCain/Palin without holding my nose.

McCains pick today has all the hallmarks of a political gimmick and a hail-Mary pass. Most folks around here know I was hoping Mitt would get the nod. My concerns about Palin were that she would be vulnerable to the criticism here. That said, I think she is a strong choice and will do an excellent job representing GOP principles.

Someone’s candidate didn’t get picked. Sorry about that!
Yeah for McCain and Sarah! I was so thrilled!

My wife, an anti-Obama voter who might have made it to the polls to unenthusiastically cast a vote for McCain as the lesser evil, is electrified. A poll of one. We’ll see how unusual she is.

With competent and proven individuals waiting in the wings such as Governor Mitt Romney, the selection of Sarah Palin is a most unfortunate choice.
Sour grapes from Mittville? At last there is a proven, conservative on the ticket. I would have voted for a McCain Romney ticket, but I would have to set the alarm because the campaign would have put me to sleep.

Rubbish!
We are are talking a VP choice, not a Presidential choice. Palin will have the luxury of “learning on the job” which Obama wouldn’t.
What would you prefer? - An experienced President and an inexperienced “Funeral Attender” or an inexperienced President and an experienced “Funeral Attender”?

I think I can just slide GOPublius over into the 'damned fool' category right now.

You, sir, or madame, didn't post a barf alert, nor did you offer any of your own thoughts on this article.
The 'hail Mary' comment was made by Chuckie today and I haven't a clue as to where you're coming from.
The left, perhaps?

NEWS FLASH! This just in: At approximately 10:30am this morning the entire Obama campaign (yes, including the Messiah himself) had to change their underwear.

The author can bite my crank. McCain has consistently shown audacity throughout this campaign. He has made a bold choice with Palin. I think it’s brilliant.

Sarah Palin is an NRA life member. I've already seen a picture of her on the internet holding an M4 carbine. NRA members will turn out for her in droves, and that's a VERY important vote. They know what Obama and Biden represent.
She takes the whole stupid "Make history by electing the first (fill in the blank for your favorite minority)" argument. I just read that Evangelical Christians are ecstatic about her being chosen. McCain just shored up his base, and maybe brought in some PUMA's as well.
I don't see how there could have been a better choice.

1) first Republican woman selected to run as VP instantly makes this a “historic” ticket
2) secures and energizes the base
3) offers Hillary voters the opportunity to vote for a woman
4) executive experience (plus Governor of a Western state is a plus with many Western states in play this election)
5) great on oil/gas/energy
6) excellent speaking skills
7) conservatives can visualize her as future president
8) very “family values”
9) will attract some union voters who normally vote straight Dem ticket
10) stregthens McCain’s “reform” message
Did I miss anything?
