Election 2008: John McCain's choice of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate is brilliant. Her individualism matches McCain's. But it's the new strengths she brings to the ticket that make the team formidable.
To say it was a bold pick is putting it mildly. Palin, after all, isn't well-known outside Alaska. But McCain is maverick-bold, and this masterstroke looks like a game-changer for Republicans.

P-E-R-F-E-C-T is what I told McCain along with my donation.
I think I might be happier now than I was the last election day. I’m so happy, I’m afraid I’m going to jinx us!
Agree. Funny - had no interest in donating until today and a friend said the same thing. Bet his donations make a significant jump.

today. There is a thread on it...

how can you post a pic?
I wanna post the brilliant guys from the Guinness commercials.
Palin's nomination adds to a McCain team that already includes very competent advisers such as Carly Fiorina, former CEO of Hewlett-Packard, and Meg Whitman, who ran eBay. By contrast, based on what was seen at the Denver convention, the main achievement of the Democrats' female flag bearer, Michelle Obama, was marrying well.
Seems to be a key difference between D and R.

We HAD been rude to RNC callers and have discarded their mailings unopened.
This changes now.
I was saving old mail in order to burn for heat this coming winter. I was fortunate enough to find a few donation forms in the pile. Gonna send one in. It's always good to recycle - eh?
The title says it all. I’m so thrilled — and never thought I’d be enthusiastic about this election. Senator McCain has made a brilliant choice. Because of Governor Palin’s selection, I’ll now dance to the polls and happily vote FOR them and not just against the other candidates.
Me too.
For the past year, I've referred to him as mcpain, no more. I'll donate and work for the ticket.
From now on, he is McCain, not mcpain.
Thanks!
