Sarah Palin as Alaska Governor

John McCain rolled the dice. He picked Sarah Palin as his runningmate. But wait, Who is Sarah Palin?

She is the governor of Alaska who has been in office for a year and a half. Nobody knows much about her. 98 % of the country does not know her. How can they vote for her? What has John McCain been thinking?

This must be a calculated risk by the camp of John McCain to get those disatisfied by the loss of Hillary Clinton. John wants to go after the voters who would have voted for Hillary Clinton.

Any way, Sarah Palin is the new face on the Republican ticket.

Thus far, Hillary undecided may have a new shot at supporting a woman. That is what John McCain wants to see. But Sarah Palin does not have a lot of experience in office. Before being governor, she was serving in a small town where she raised taxes. How can she stand up to argue with veteran foreign policy maker, Joe Biden? Sarah has a lot to crunch in order to be ready for the task.
