Quick thought about Palin

Strange choice. One great thing about the pick, though. Biden, will have to sheath his sharp tongue during the debates in order not to appear disdainful.

It makes a lot of sense when you think about it. Obama picked someone very much like McCain, and McCain picked someone very much like Obama. Each one has been getting attacked for certain weaknesses, so they picked someone who covered up those weaknesses very well.

Also, McCain seems to like blondes half his age.

I don't think making Biden play nice is going to keep her from looking out of her depth in national politics.

Also, I suspect that, given Palin's positions on many "womens" issues, she will drive more wavering Hillary supporters to Obama than she draws.
