McCAIN VP DAY!

Its official: the 2008 Republican Ticket will be Senator John McCain of Arizona, and Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. So who is Palin and why is she getting the Republicans all happy-happy?

Well, Palin is a pro-life reformist, who took the reigns of Alaska, and has since been known as “Sarah the Barracuda” with “the bodies of those that opposites Palin line the streets of Alaska”. She has been a lifelong member of the NRA, an avid hunter, and a small business woman. She has 5 kids, the oldest going to serve in Iraq, and the youngest just born last April, who happens to be down-syndrome.

So what does Palin do to the ticket? Well, she takes a bit away from the idea of ‘experience‘, as she has been governor for only 2 years. That point is moot however. She does bring in a lot of Clinton voters, and helps bring in energy to a relatively dead campaign. Not only that, but she also energies the republican base, who at this time where not too sure if they were going to go out and vote for McCain.

Palin also is known, like Biden, to be extremely blunt. I can’t wait for the Vice Presidential debate. Hold on, because this election just got a whole lot more interesting!
