If McCain had picked anyone other than Palin, we would have all gone, “ Oh, well, he could have done worse” and his campaign stops would have been ho-hum gatherings. But Gov Palin has injected new, fresh blood into the GOP and it is on fire like it hasn’t been since 1994.
You can’t tell me that had McCain picked say, Kay Bailey Hutchinson, there would have been near as much excitement for this campaign.
