The Day McCain Lost The Election?
So McCain goes for Palin (no, not Michael). It's clear that he was looking for someone young - and few are older than him - and to try to get the unhappy Hillary supporters. I don't think it will work.
There are some problems with this pick as it damages the charges McCain has thrown at Obama:
1. Won't appeal to Clinton supporters. Palin is anti-abortion, pro-oil, pro-guns.
2. Lack of experience. Palin has none. She has been Governor of Alaska, a state with a smaller population that Obama's state senate district in Illinois. Two years ago she was Mayor of a town with 8,400 inhabitants.
3. Lightweight celebrity. This VP is only known by an article entitled "America's Hottest Governor". A Former beauty queen.

A town with 8500 inhabitants? From what we know about Alaska, they are prob all her relatives.
