McCain May Have Just Won the Election

John McCain chose Sarah Palin (no relation to Michael Palin of Monty Pyton fame, at least not that I know of) to be his running mate. Really, a very intelligent choice. With one fell swoop (what exactly is a fell swoop anyway?) McCain won over conservative Christians who weren't all that keen on him before, and will likely attract even more disgruntled Hillary Clinton supporters than he would have had had he not chosen a woman. And Palin is a lot easier to look at than Cheney has been or Biden would be. (Sorry, I'll put my sexism in the closet until after the election.)
