FoxNews source releases information that Governor Sarah Palin is McCains VP pick. Fox News claims McCain Camp has verified by email. Gov Palin is a former Sportscaster, Mayor, and she is pro-life, NRA member, and originally from Idaho. Gov Palin is a hunter, fisherman and hockey player. As a former basketball player in high school, it was known that Sarah Palin's nickname was "Sarah the Barracuda".
The above is a paraphrased excerpt from FoxNews channel.

A FoxNews commentator said when asked if she would be tough enough for Washington, that a politician from Alaska said "the political landscape is littered with the bodies of those who have come against her".
Gov Palin recently visited the troops in Iraq, and will be concerned with National Security. She also is pro drilling in Alaska. A true conservative for the Republican base.
Let us at FreeRepublic get behind this very conservative woman, who will compliment McCain.
She is a brilliant choice, and the Obamanation is in despair, today, I guarantee you, because all his thunder from last night is gone this morning and by next week no one will even remember what he said.
Welcome to ninety minutes ago.
LOL.
Forget Obama! Hilary can not be the first woman in the wh now...
LMAO!
I can barely contain my excitement.
We were in Alaska last month. Every Alaskan I asked is FOR drilling.
No holding nose now! THANK YOU John McCain. Now I can vote for you.
First CNN says she shouldn’t be the pick because she has a Down Syndrome child, implying that a woman with a DS child should not be in the work force. Now they just said that because she is a woman, she couldn’t possibly wage the War On Terror.
First point, now they are admitting there is a WOT. Second point, have any of these male CNN anchors ever watched Animal Planet and the reaction of a bear when her cubs are threatened? What a bunch of imbeciles.
Good choice, McCain. :) He gave conservatives hope for the future.
That’ll leave a mark on the B&B boys. Bambie and Biden need to re-write their play book. She’s a good looking gal with Executive experience; which none of the three men running can boast, and from what I’ve been able to learn, and accomplished politician.
Sent out an order for more popcorn!
I am very glad to be wrong about McCain on this one :).
I was sure it would be Liberman. The only sad thing for me about this pick is that I wish she was on the TOP of the ticket !
And Biden is completely neutralized with the Palin pick. He has to be careful how he attacks her... because she is a woman! If Biden says the wrong thing... he pisses off 50% of the electors... So much for experience... Biden has 30 years worth... sort of like “all dressed up and nowhere to go...”
Sara Palin for President 2016.
I wonder what this’ll to B&B boy’s convention bounce. Imagine wat the polls will show monday!
Whoops, make that SaraH!
Brilliant gutsy choice by McCain. He just stole whatever insipid thunder there was from the Dems convention. Super pick.
Can you imagine her debating Biden?? That will be a time for Beer and Popcorn.
The first thing McCain has done in some time that I’m 100% in agreement with. She will tear Joe OBiden a new rectal orifice.
