I haven’t been thrilled with John McCain as my Republican nominee. I pretty much planned to vote for him in November, unless he had done something like put Mike Huckabee on his ticket. I haven’t been excited by most of the possible VP rumors, not that they were bad, just not exciting for me personally.
But this morning I got excited. And as the excitement built, I worried that I was going to be let down. But no. McCain has chosen Alaska Gov Sarah Palin to be his running mate.
I love this pick. I am excited. I am going to put that McCain yard sign (which we have had for two weeks now) in the yard. We have a McCain sticker to put on the car, but now I want to wait and put a McCain/Palin sticker on the car.
In the days to come, there are going to be plenty of people who say this was a bad pick for McCain, but unless they find Gov Palin in the midst of an extra-marital affair with the corrupt Ted Stevens and it turns out she aborted his baby after passing a gun ban, I’m going to continue to be excited.
