= I am actually not very suprised that McCain chose a woman for VP. It has seemed for some time that he needed to chose someone from a different demographic just to stay in the news when Obama starts his TV onslaught.
= I just thought that it would be a woman with a number of years experience. However, I assumed that Elizabeth Dole would be excluded because she is a month older than John McCain.
= I am just suprised that he chose the youngest and the least experienced of the 7 Republican women who are currently serving as Senators or Governors.
= Do you think Sarah Palin's beauty was the deciding factor?
