It's Sarah Palin!

With America still in the shadow of Obama's acceptance speech with its Führer-esque quality, the McCain campaign stole the show the very next day by pulling off a true surprise VP pick in Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.

This selection has sent eh Democrats' heads spinning, and every barb they've sent flying at Palin has come right back to sting them:

From Obama, the man who HAD to speedily travel the world and take on almost McCain-like, white-haired, long-time Washington insider Joe Biden to even make himself look reputable:  Palin has no foreign policy experience? Really?  It could be worse, she could be RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT!

From a man who wants the votes of small town, middle-America:  that she started off as only a mayor of a town of 9,000?  Don't they matter?  Aren't they Americans too?  Besides, isn't that just a fact, not liability.

From Mr. Change himself:  "That's not the change we need, it's just more of the same."  What change do we need, then, Sen. Obama?  I guess you're just the guy to TELL us what we need.

Sarah Palin is:
  • all executive experience
  • true blue collar, middle American roots
  • a real powerhouse of change
Which means: Be very afraid, Sen. Obama!
