The choice of someone like Palin as a running mate means on of two things. Either the choice was not really McCains, but that of some RNC committee looking to broaden their ticket to bring the neocons and evangelicals back into the fold (meaning the McCain let himself be a puppet of the RNC, not the "maverick" that he says he is OR that McCain has extremely poor judgement which would extend to the selection of his cabinet. If McCain wins, she will forever be compared to Dan "potatoe" Quayle and if McCain loses, she will forever be compared to Admiral "who am I and what am I doing here" Stockdale. Say what you will about Obama, he ran the nomination gauntlet and came out on top, but Palin is, to me, merely a choice made to pander to the extreme right of the Republican party.
