Well I can’t say that John McCain picking Sarah Palin as his Vice President came as a surprise to me. In fact, I figured that he would pull a dramatic move to get more media attention and more votes. The thing that makes me laugh though is that he is so predictable. All of the women in his life, including his new VP are cookie cutter pageant participants.
It should be noted that Sarah Palin has made great strides as a woman in the political arena. Not only would she be (in the unlikely case that McCain wins) the FIRST female Vice-President, but she has already made history as the first woman to become Governor of Alaska.
However, I doubt this move will encourage more people to go out and vote for him. His decision seems more superficial than actually dealing with the true issue- who is better equipped to assist him with running the United States?
Remember that this race is about our future, our children’s future, and our economy… so it offends me when candidates, like John McCain, make a mockery of our political process and attempt to turn it into a popularity contest.
What did you think about this decision?
