“VP running mates are normally chosen for what they can bring to the ticket.”
But I think mccain chose Sarah because he thought she was a sure loss. That man did not want to win the election. And he would not allow Sarah to be Sarah once he realized how popular she was.
Col. West would be an outstanding campaigner and asset to Palin in so many ways. I don’t think she would tether him or muzzle him like mccain did to her.
He is a remarkable man and she is a remarkable woman. Together, I think they are invincible. Seriously. In fact, the more I think about it, the more sure I am.
Plus many of McCain’s campaign aides were ex-Romney people who saw how charismatic and powerful Gov. Palin was and went to work to sabotage the election and her chances of ever running for anything else.
He is a remarkable man and she is a remarkable woman. Together, I think they are invincible.
Yes, Sarah would be 'in it to win it', and would choose someone like West because he would be of like mind and temperament. I don't think she'd put the slightest damper on him during the campaign, and would, in fact, encourage him to make the same sorts of motivational speeches that he's done in the past.
The more I look at the concept of them running together, the better I like it. In fact, I'm starting to think that he's the best choice she could make.
