Nice post

Your analysis it 180 off.

None of the other conventional VP choices would have excited the base at all. None.

They were all leftovers and rejects and compromises. All.

All except the purely wierd and bizarre choices like Lieberman (a very likable guy even when in disagreement).

She has already energized the base in ways that none of the others could have.

Had McCain picked anyone else I would never consider voting for his ticket.

Forget for a moment that Palin is a woman. Her credentials are more solidly Conservative than any of the others.

Her life mirrors her claims.

Her lack of Washington experience also means she isn’t tainted, she truly can be an agent of change, and that she isn’t part of the problem (even McCain can’t make that claim!).

She earned her position as a party outsider and has the tools to do it again.

Now consider that she is a woman. She is nearly the ideal Conservative/Republican woman and wife and the exact opposite of the Lib/Dem womanly ideal.

Think on it from a move of strength instead of weakness.

It is a brilliant move.

DU agrees with you

• "Man the Lifeboats - She's Goin' Down
  From the minute John McCain won the nomination of his party, I knew that before the campaign had run its course, he would commit political suicide."
• "How Soon Does Palin Step Down/Away? "
• "McCain's pick of Palin shows he is WEAK."
• "McCain's VP pick shows his reckless, impulsive, narcissism."
• " Sarah Palin and Why McCain Has Already Lost."

The concern for Republican electoral hope is touching

I don’t share the enthusiasm for Palin that many on Free Republic do.

I share the enthusiasm with all Freepers in good standing for zotting sleeper trolls.

I would have to say that Americans have begun to demand that Congress lift the ban on drillign in ANWR. With Sarah now on the ticket, I think many will realize that this just might have a way of coming about now. I think that many will see an opportunity here and who knows whatt he end product will be? I’m very excited!

After watching McCain on the Sunday morning Fox Interview .,,,I believe McCain chose her because of her reform efforts as the Governor of Alaska.....

Well said.

I think we need to stop labeling anyone who offers a respectable disagreement with us as trolls.

There are bound to be a few stragglers who don't think this was a good choice. But the question is, are they with us or against us?

Its tougher in Alaska

Two good sayings come to thought regarding Palin:
—”White-collar mind; Blue-collar hands.”
—”Stop talking, start doing.”
