As an Alaskan, I kinda like Sarah for her ability to knock off an overaged, overdumb incumbent who shouldna been in the office. She's made herself usefula as a maverick who has alienated a lot of folks in the traditional Republican power structure.

Nevertheless, her educational background and worldview are not optimal for a national office.

I think McCain may well have been brilliant in shaking things up with her nomination, but I also think he selected someone, who, like Dan Quayle will make us all pray just a little longer and harder for the continuing good health of the President.

I think experience wise the only person in the top 4 who looks at all good is Biden.
