That's sad... I think he just wanted to prove he could pick a female to show up Obama for not picking Hillary. There's also the aspect that she's 44 and 3 years younger than Obama, which could get him a few votes on the principle that he's not biased against those 'younger and more inexperienced' *coughObama* than him.
But I really think Palin's a bad choice for VP. She has no foreign policy experience, she's currently only in her first term as governor of ALASKA! And may I add how many Americans even think of Alaska as being part of us? She seems way to estranged to the average American.
Plus, McCain's so old he could pretty much drop dead any second. Is Palin ready to take over and lead the nation within the next four years?
