This blog was among the first blogs to take notice of Gov. Palin as possible VP choice for McCain. This was way back in February 2008.

Well, now we know she is the VP choice!

Here’s the entry en toto:

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:


Very refreshing views on public service, coming from a former beauty queen. She was Miss Wasilla in 1984.

And was a hoopster, too, according to this news item:

And she was a local girl: daughter of a popular local teacher and coach, she was a one-time Miss Wasilla and, in a basketball-mad town, was practically canonized as the point guard for Wasilla's 1982 girls' state championship team.

That’s batting 1:1.

Now, it would be nice to go 2:2, if this choice makes it on the November race.
