Well, it looks as though John McCain has picked a running mate for his 2008 run for the White House. In, what I consider to be a deliciously clever move, he has apparently chosed Sarah Palin, the Governor of Alaska who has a sort of “I’m a cute little librarian who gets naughty behind closed doors” thing going on.
The question now, is whether or not this move is enough to scrape up the rampantly pro-woman Hilary supporters. In any case, I think it’s a smart move by McCain. It definitely alters the appeal, or lack thereof, of the GOP.
What I think is most apt about this move, is the fact that the Republican Party will now also be making a ground-breaking and historic move, which I believe a lot of Americans like. We like when people “shake things up a bit” and we like seeing “firsts.” Barrack Obama was the first black man to be nominated as a presidential candidate for a major American party and, if McCain wins, Palin will be the first woman Vice President ever. As I said: we like “firsts.”
