I'm sorry, but I've never been much of a Palin supporter. After all, IMO, if she's good enough for Juan McCain, she is NOT good enough for me. I like some of the things that she has said in the past, especially when she complimented Rep. Ron Paul, who I had hoped would have won the GOP Primary. I voted for Pastor Chuck Baldwin of the Constitution Party after Rep. Paul lost the nomination.
Well there ya go, you answered my question.
No offense, but you're completely ignorant as to how American presidential elections work. With rare exception, running mates are picked to fill gaps in experience, appeal to voting blocks that aren't covered, bolster a campaign theme or provide regional balance/get a swing state in the bag (or some combination of them)`, NOT because the big guy and the veep are in love with each other's policy positions. That's why Barack "No experience" Obama picked a guy who had been in the Senate since before Watergate (fill gaps) and McCain picked someone who would appeal to the base and reinforce the "Maverick reformer" theme.

As a veteran and the father of a future Air Force officer, I can't tell you how much I appreciate the sober and thoughtful way you have associated being a conservative with helping out an inept commander-in-chief. Oh, and thanks for Janet Napolitano! Thanks, I
