Wow. John McCain really surprised the political world with Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate!
Perhaps Gov. Palin will attract some women over to the McCain campaign? She is very, very unknown, however. I’m interested to see how this works out. This is VERY, VERY interesting!
I don’t know much about Gov. Palin, but here’s what I do know:

- Mother of five children (youngest has downs syndrome, oldest going to fight in Iraq)
- Pro-life, pro-gun, avid hunter
- Governor of Alaska, elected in 2006
- Mayor of a small suburb town (pop. 8,400) before Gov.
- Miss Alaska runner-up in the ’80s
- Palin rhymes with Van Halen (PAY-LYN)
- Her 17-year old daughter is pregnant

- Juneau Empire Editorial
- Ketchikan Daily News Editorial
