McCain picks Palin

August 29, 2008

Yes, Sarah Palin. She was my pick for VP, but I feared her first term Governor status would eliminate her this cycle.

Who is Sarah Palin? Jonathan Martin gives a glimpse

Palin is a strong conservative, opposing abortion rights and enjoying a life membership in the NRA.

She also has a compelling personal story, having given birth in April to a son, her fifth child, who has Down syndrome. Another son is in the Army and is to deploy to Iraq next month.

Politically, Palin would underline McCain’s reform message and offer him a running mate who could not be, in more ways than one, further from the Beltway.
