I never ever heard of Sara Palin before hearing that John McCain has picked her as his running mate. What is he thinking? The VP will be the one to run the country in the event the president can no longer do it and they should have the experience to be able to step up and do just that. But look at her resume. Beauty queen, mayer of a small town in Alaska, and governor for only two years. It is true that she is a working mother of five and that does take some skill to do but we are talking about the Whitehouse here. What does she bring to the table that will enable her to run that house.
Sadly, the person who told me about the selection had only one thing to say about her. "She is just so darling". But, I asked, what does she stand for, what is her record, what are her qualifications? The answer I got was that these things were unknown but that she sure was cute. I am really scared for our country, for the GOP party who think this is okay, and for the future of American politics.
