What's funny is that the AP article to which Drudge links expresses surprises that McCain would pick a neophyte for a VP when he's been attacking Obama for being a neophyte. Apparently the AP reporter is confused about the difference between being a VP (a good place for on-the-job training) and being President (a bad place for that same training).

"If Joe Biden is the Chevy Impala for the Democrats, Sarah Palin is the Ford AC Cobra 427. Stunning, high torque, lane changing, awesome. Smart, quick, fearless.

The McCain campaign has just seized this campaign by the throat. "Barack who?" may be a cliché but this McCain move, like a chemical getter in a vacuum sealed cathode ray tube that cleans out any stray O2, just sucked the oxygen out of the Obama glitter from last night.

Palin brings significant while youthful executive experience at both local and regional levels , at the moment an extremely popular governor.. Pro-life, anti-corruption political reformer, economic development driver, energy advocate with strong environmental protection creds and limited government fiscal tightwad.

And what a life story. As Karl Rove says, a "hockey playing, gun and fishing rod toting, mom".

Athletic, brainy, articulate, just awesome. Sarah Palin is McCain's message to the field that there will be no yellow flags in this race. The pedal is to the metal."
