This is the most gimmicky, bizarre VP pick ever.
Just..bizarre. I'm speechless really. This is a woman who was mayor of a fishing town like 2 yrs ago!! She's been governor of one of least populated states for all of 20 months and is now the GOP's VP nominee? WOW Does McCain think women are THAT stupid? That they will vote for him because his running mate has a vagina? This pick really insults my intelligence.

1. Like Northern Exposure crashing into The West Wing.

3. As a woman I have to say in no uncertain terms that this pandering pick
of an unqualified woman is HIGHLY insulting and offensive.

4. From a prior thread it sounds like her entire vetting was a two hour meeting last night
Basically she was chosen because she was the conservative equivalent of Lieberman which is apparently who McCain really wanted as VP.

7. No, she's just as corrupt and nasty as the rest of them
she's no less bizarre a pick for the GOP than Dubya was.
