I posted on here several times that I feared he would pick a far right VP. but she exceeds my worst fears. I can't imagine too many former Hillary supporters going for her given her extreme positions ..It would have to be on gender alone and that is disturbing.

Being further to the rigth than W isn't a bad thing. I mean look at the Fannie May Freddie Mac mess! W talks a good right wing talk, but doesn't re-enforce it with his pen. He's also too quick to throw people under the bus and apologize. Palin has a bigger set than W ever dreamed of having. I watched W on an old Meet the Press and was extremely disappointed. He started out with high ideals, but never really succeeded in anything he outlined besides tax cuts, and those aren't even permanent!
