Palin Power


The choice of Sarah Palin as the Republican's Vice-President nomination has been shocking, brave and incredibly shrewd. This is going to be one tight race and I can't wait for November.... She may end up winning this election for McCain, which will prove her selection as a masterstroke of political nous. Yet if we consider that they are proposing that she is someone who will lead at the highest echelons of national government and international relations - her choice is absurd and reckless.

Imagine if the Democrats had picked someone so inexperienced with the family troubles she is going through. You can bet your life there would be a spew of bile towards an identical Democrat candidate, particularly from the Christian right.  

And there is absolutely no way that the Republicans would dismiss using her family troubles against her in the same, resolute way, that Obama's team have been doing. I can't wait to see how this all pans out......
