Well, for anyone who doesn't know(or care), John McCain has chosen Alaska governor Sarah Palin as his running mate in his bid for the presidency. This choice pretty much came from nowhere, and is being hailed by many as one of the most brilliant political moves in history. While I wouldn't necessarily go that far, I do agree that McCain made the best choice he could have possibly made in Sarah Palin. One reason for this is that she appeals to so many different classes of voters: women, union members, career military people, those conservative Christians still unsure of McCain, environmentalists, etc.
This choice has the potential to give John McCain the boost he needs to break the stalemate that has formed in McCain's race with Barack Obama.
As an aside, another benefit of the timing and surprise of this choice is that it goes a very long way toward canceling out Obama's boost from his landmark, if logically inconsistent, acceptance speech last night.
Well, that's all for now... just had to give a quick update there;-)
Bye!
Daniel
