I have fingers crossed, but I’m getting prepared for a disappointment.
A little encouragement here:
I’m not buying the ‘In Alaska’ story. I think its the McCain campaign blowing out smoke and mirrors again like they did last night over Pawlenty. Its also possible (assuming the McCain camp has kept a tight lid on it and only a few people know) that Palin’s assistant doesn’t know either yet and is simply reaffirming the ‘previous’ schedule.
Check out Intrade - Palins numbers are off the chart.
Start getting EXCITED!!!!
CNN - Thursday night’s arrival of a private jet from Alaska at the Middleton, Ohio, airport raised speculation that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin would be McCain’s pick. Middleton is 25 miles from Dayton.
Rich Bevis, an airport manager at the Middleton airport, said that a woman, two men and two teenagers were onboard
“This is the most secretive flight we’ve ever had,” Bevis said.
