Palin:
- 44 year old mom
- won Miss Wasilla beauty pageant
- majored in journalism; was a sports reporter
- rose from mayor to governor in the past 8 years

Hmm...and this is coming from a campaign that has been consistently and fervently attacking Obama's readiness to lead the country and his lack of national experience.

I'm sorry, but, imo, this is obviously a move to gain Hillary's feminists who have been put off by the Biden ticket. And it is a cheap cheap shot. Not to mention Palin is staunchly pro-life. I doubt the ultra-feminist types are going to fall for that...

McCain is old and has battled melanoma. Chances aren't low that Palin might have to assume the Presidency. I don't know about you, but that scares me.

Disclaimer: Obviously, I'm liberal and lean heavily towards Obama.
