"What we know already about Sarah Palin is extraordinary enough. It's difficult to know where to start. The moose stew. The former Wasilla beauty queen and Miss Congeniality who is a better shot than current Vice-President Dick Cheney. "
You left out some not so small details there Mat. Like the fact that Palin was the mayor of Wasilla and is currently the governor of Alaska which has over 25000 employees and a budget of over 10 billion dollars.
"Or should we dwell on the fact that the woman who might one day command the most powerful army in the world, run three wars and fix the economic engine of the planet has only been abroad twice in her 44 years of life? Once to neighbouring Canada and last year to Kuwait and Germany for 36 hours to visit American troops. "
Well gee Mat, that didn't seem to bother you when John Edwards was running for VP.
"In Berlin and Beijing, they are scratching their heads but in much of Republican heartland America, Mrs Palin is seen as Mr McCain's best hope for winning the White House. "
Silly us Mat. Here we were thinking John McCain was his best hope for winning.
"Whether the gamble pays off depends for now on the small armies of private detectives, campaign snoops and hacks descending on Alaska to hunt for more Palin facts. "
If they spent the same amount of time investigating Obama's ties to Rezko, Ayers and his total lack of experience, this race would be over today.
"They did it with Ronald Reagan and George W Bush. Why not do it with a 44-year-old governor of America's second most distant state, a very modern woman with very conservative values? Does America want to go along for the ride? "
They did it with Bill Clinton and look what a disaster that was.
