First, i'm astounded that McCain met with his choice only one time, the person who would literally be "a heartbeat away".
Secondly, This woman governs a state that has fewer people than most major cities, one burrough of NY. Her experience is that of a big city mayor.
Thirdly, She is pro-life, pro-gun, hard core evangelical. It is insulting to think that he will attract moderate women voters simply because he chose a woman.
Fourthly, I'm a former elected official. My son is now 25 years old. When we talked recently about what he recalled from that period of my life, he replied "how i cried when you left for session on Monday afternoon". This, after he had met presidents, heads of states, governors. It is the epitome of selfishness, and beyond that, it will be interesting see how she lasts through the vigors of a national campaign.
Obama bettter win, or I'm looking at property in Mexico. NO way am I living through 4 more years of this. McCain's choice, in a word: INSULTING
