Let' start with this one: the current Governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin, who is Republican.There are now voices coming out from the blogosphere for drafting her as VP to Sen. McCain.
Is she any good, aside from the very pretty face?
Listen to an interview with the Washington Post:

I could not care less about vice presidents; although I hope McCain picks well. He's pretty old. Good chance his VP will be the P.
ReplyDeleteSo, Phil, we do care who gets to sit as VP if only to provide for any eventuality that McCain will not be able to finish his term.
ReplyDeleteBut beyond that I also see things this way, in a very pragmatic way. I figure however it finally gets together, Obama will figure prominently in the general election, either as presidential or VP candidate. And if he continues to ride the crest of his popularity based largely on the freshness of his looks and oratory but on a clean but empty political slate, then why not counter it similarly. A VP candidate who is physically attractive but in the minority (a woman)and does not come out as a shrinking violet (Palin is reported to also be politically astute and aggressive), and also has executive experience as governor and mayor.
A beauty contest? HeHeHe. BTW, Obama also played ball in college (or was it HS?). So a beauty and an athletic competition. HeHeHe.
