Yes, Cheney is wrong and McCain was the poor choice.
I believe Palin was a bold choice. I believe Quayle hurt Bush-1 but he survived. Quayle had been an upcoming bright Senator (ala Rubio) but the media sliced and diced him from the git-go.
Ferarro was similarly torn apart due to “questions” about her husband. (Media usually does not care about men’s spouses — unless they are Republicans)
I’d like to see Mitt pick Sarah this time. I do not see anyone better. Jeb Bush? are you kidding? Then a bunch of nobodys (ala Pawlenty). The media would ballyhoo Christy’s girth unmercifully.
The only one who may help deliver a key state, Ohio, would be Portman but he is really not well known in the Buckeye state.
Puckings are slim.
I would have liked Gen Petraeus but Bambi has marinated him in so much crap in the mishandled wars, he may have some tarnish.

I don’t know. If McCain didn’t pick her, she’d still be governor and she’d have a political future. A chance for VP? President? Who knows but she doesn’t have anything now because she was taken out so soon.
