Let Sarah Palin be Sarah Palin. She'll attract a lot of voters without pandering.
And, Jim, a Huckster pick would not have made most of the Base happy.
I’m going to send John boy a donation. I can’t believe he went for my #1 pick.
Richard Viguerie is already predicting a landslide victory for the GOP in Nov.
I heart Sarah Palin. It’s an inspired choice.
Plus, by not picking any of his primary opponents he’s free of all the negative things they said about him. He can now go hardcore with the commercials of Dem primary opponents attacking Obama. Brilliant.
I’m Indie, voted for Obambi in the primary here (until I really got to see what the empty suit was like), worked for Governor Wilder’s campaign in VA, and like this choice very, very much.
Great choice of a fantastic Governor, fighter, working mother, and all around American.
i get teary-eyed every time i look at her. (what a beautiful, courageous, brainy lady.)

It has been a cooler-than-normal summer in Anchorage this year. Where does she stand on globull warming?
Good job, Johnny - keep this up, and pull out one or two of the knives you put in our backs the past few years, and I'll put your real name back on the sign....
mark for later
Let me go on record, I was right here on FR saying after Fred dropped out, that “a McCain for President Yard sign will never cast its shadow on my front lawn”. Stopping short of saying I would never vote for him.
Well let me tell you, with his performance at Saddelback, his brilliant new style of ads, and now picking Sarah Palin, I am so Pumped I can’t be contained.
I am using my lunch hour today to find websites to purchase bumper stickers, yard signs, T-shirts, heck right now I could break a taboo of mine and tattoo McCain/Palin 08 on my chest.
And yes, I am writing a check to his campaign. Obama is in big trouble.
She will be a big hit with the pro gun guys in Ohio, Pa, West Virginia and Michigan.
She will appeal across the board to drill here/drill now folks and she will win the hearts and minds of every American who is fed up with earmarks and Bridges to Nowhere.
In short Sarah is a game changer Bigtime as VP Cheney would say.
Sarah Palin is a gun totin’, hockey playin’, life time member of the NRA that gets up at 3 o’clock in the morning to hunt moose with her father, hockey mother of five, wife of her high school sweetheart, a lifetime fisherman who’s been in the union all of his life. She’s a pro-life environmentalist wanting to drill holes all over Alaska to lower the price I pay for gasoline. Her eldest enlisted in the United States Army on September 11th last, and deploys to Iraq on September 11th in two weeks. And to top it off she just thanked Hillary Clinton for putting 18,000,000 cracks in the glass ceiling, and promised those women she’d finish breaking though it.
And people ask if McCain made a good choice for VP?
We should thank God for Alaska too - one of the States that continuously elects real conservatives. Alaska seems to be a place where a politician does not feel the need to water-down their pro-life, small Gov’t, free-market or gun-owning convictions. What an incubator!
I was driving when I heard...I am back on board with JOhn McCain..this is the smartest political move I have ever seen. From every angle it is genius...Joe Biden will only look bad when he uses his standard tactics on a woman...and she will mop the floor with him. The media can’t say anything...Hillary can’t say anything. McCain has bottled up the opposition with one move.!!!! Hooray for Palin
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe I get a pretty good feel of the conservative base pulse right here on Free Republic.
From what I’ve been reading throughout all the various posts concerning McCain’s choice of Sarah Palin, there is hardly any doubt that “the base” is finally energized.
Among FR members it also appears that the pick of Palin has unanimous support. Amazing!
John McCain, you have picked a winner and I applaud you. Good job!
I hope after your elected that your taste for supreme court justice nominees doesn’t change.
Huckabee would have been an utter disaster as a VP pick. Some of the social conservatives and evangelicals might’ve loved it, but the fiscal conservatives and libertarian side of the party would’ve exploded, and rightfully so.
The Palin pick, IMO, makes perfect sense.

I just sent my first donation to the McCain campaign, this morning.
I have a down syndrome nephew. And he is beautiful.
All of a sudden, a vote for McCain has become a very, very easy thing to do.
Go get ‘em Sarah!!!!
I heart her too. She is the best choice McCain could have made.
6 foot 2 X 4 + John McCain = Sarah Palin pick.
