She is an extremely dignified woman. I could have really respected that choice for VP.

  1. Where is Kay's executive experience?  When will her approval rating be as high as Sarah's?  Kay is too close to being a run-of-the-mill politician.  McCain evidently wanted a topnotch nominee instead.


  2. If being dignified was the only selection criteria then I think our country would be in serious trouble. For one, she is from Texas and that would have only reminded people of G.W.   Plus, Sarah is a reformer and maverick like McCain, so she reinforces his beliefs. Kay is more like Pres. Bush and we all know how much people hate him in this country.

  3. Your right she does seem to have a more experience along with a face and name that has been known to the public for quite some time, however she doesn't have 5 kids... Mrs. Hutchinson's two children are both adopted, and the other two older children come from her husbands previous marriage... for McCain to solidify the old Republican base he must take on the image of a man that is strong in family values, being that he divorced his college sweet heart, and re-married a 20 something it is hard for him to do so... Now enter in Sarah, she's 44 with 5 children of her own... now the American public can see a whole family just in time for the Republican convention...

  4. She's not a hottie...

  5. Because the sexist McCain needed a "young babe" to scrog on the side.  

  6. why? is she hotter than Palin?

  7. because palin is not a traditionalist republican

  8. I agree completely.

    Or Carly Fionora, former CEO of HP and one of McCain's advisors.  She's a very sharp, articulate woman.  Saw her interviewed on a Sunday show and she made the best case for McCain I've heard.

  9. Why is it about a woman on the ticket, instead of just the best candidate?  Palin is a governor, and what makes you think she's on the ticket just because she's a woman?

  10. McCain and Hutchinson don't like each other, and that's putting it mildly.  Besides, she's shooting for Texas Governor.
