This is a truly historic race, McCain might steal old Hillary supporters by doing this.

this is a suprising choice, from what ive heard she's an excelent gov.

I am on the Fence with this one.
No one heard of her, and She seems cool, but ballsy move by McCain in trying to get Clinton supporters to side with him.
Joe Biden Was a Terrible Choice! Richardson, The Governors of Ohio and Virginia would have been superior.
Biden Talk Maaaad Junk towards Obama, like 2-3 months ago, and Jeez, the guy is just a Loser.

I'm not happy with Biden, but I do see why he was chosen. He's perfect against McCain in this case, plus he's used like an attack dog for Obama.

Not a bad choice at all. I like her history of opposing ridiculous spending (she helped kill the Bridge to Nowhere), and I'm pro-life so she scores points with me there. I don't think she manages to balance out McCain's warmongering and police-state support, so I'm not jumping to the R side. I'm sure there are many who will though. This is making me start to think that Obama just might lose this one.

Perfect against McCain?
How?
When Biden was against McCain in early polls (2006-2007) McCain was ahead of him by 18-23%.

When simple Rhetoric Fails him, and people wake up and Realize 'Hope' and 'Change' are Empty words.
That's when he loses.

I'll add that to my list of "Reasons to Hate Obama" then. As if the fact that he's a useless silver-tongued hypocrite wasn't enough.

I hope that day comes soon. The fact that anyone still thinks he's above the rest of Washington's crap amuses and horrifies me.

He has experience to bring to Obama's side, and foreign policy. So he balances out the ticket.

I don't think the hardcore Hillary voters will go after Palin, they are proabably so fed up with Hillary losing, that they wouldn't want any other woman in power aside from her. As for me, there is always has been and always shall be only one palin in my heart, and that is Michael Palin from Monty Python.
