McCain’s desperate move

The Republican choice of Sarah Palin as VP shows that McCain is backed into a corner and has to take a major chance in order to salvage any chance of success in this fall election. It’s not that the VP choice is that important, but when a race is tight and when it feels like a positive outcome is slipping away fast, every little bit helps. What’s wrong with that choice? First Palin seems to be a “maverick” carbon copy of John McCain. Logic would dictate to look for someone complementary, in order to enrich the ticket. Next, forget about “catching” disgruntled Hillary supporters with a pro-choice female candidate and putting so much political inexperience a “heartbeat-away” from the presidency is not going to play too well as the campaign heats up. I would also had that Palin’s main accomplishments, saying no the “bridge to nowhere” and selling the state jet were just responsible moves, not extraordinary feats. As we say, time will tell, but I give that choice a failing grade at best.
