Gov Palin was a secret or was she was hiding in plain sight!?

Question

The Gov of Alaska was always on McCain's' list of VP candidates, the talking heads simply dismissed her; the 'Bridge to No Where' has become a common phrase to us all, you can believe McCain knew how she handled it.; McCain wished him well the night of Obama's acceptance speech, quietly knowing the Special History his VP selection, Gov Sarah Palin, would make the next morning.

So, was the secret in plain sight all along and no one picked up on it?

Answer 1

I guess the politicians and the media were aware of her.

Answer 2

Yes and it would have been better for everyone if the secret had stayed one.

Answer 3

She wasn't a secret by any means.  Her name has been floated for over a year.

Answer 4

Bingo, that's why the media is so vicious to her.  They are stamping their feet that there still is something called, "a secret."  "How could that have been kept from me?"  "I'll show you, you little byatch!"
