John McCain announced Sarah Palin as his running mate today. Heck, Beth was so excited she actually blogged about it! Some fast facts:
Pro-life with a 5-month old Down Syndrome son
NRA member who hunts and eats moose!
Sold the previous governor’s jet on Ebay because it was too expensive for the state to maintain… Ebay!
Has been in Alaska since the 60’s and been governor since 2006
Eloped with her Eskimo hunny after college
Hot
The Dems figured they would own today after the Obamanation’s speech at the Parthenon last night, but McCain scooped him by making this blockbuster announcement today.
Yet, the BS from the left has already started. The so-called party of feminism is asking if Palin will be able to adequately serve if she has a disabled child to look after. Uh, whut? I thought women could have it all? Basically, the FemDems are scared that the GOP were smart enough to pick a woman VP candidate instead of a racist old lying thug dog, like they did.
This is a good pick for McCain. She will help balance out his more liberal views, endearing him more to the hardcore conservative base who have been rather disinterested in the candidate of record.
A roundup from twitterpated bloggers:
Examiner.com has an article by Kathy Shaidle
LadyBlog has two posts (one by yours truly - by the way, have you joined Culture11 yet?)
Althouse has a good one
TownHall has an article on how Palin can scoop some of Hillary’s PUMA supporters
And did I mention she’s hot? Then again, she’s conservative, so she naturally would be.
