Today is not only a giant moment in the McCain campaign, but a giant moment for all Americans. McCain announced today that his VP choice would not be Romney, the MN gov. or Joe Liberman, but an even bigger surprise, the 44 year old female gov. of Alaska. What does this mean to us?
For one, the claims that McCain wasn't for equality based on sex and the attempted image of him having a 1800's view of women in the work place has not only been silenced, but massively backfired on the Obama campaign. Barrack not only had the most qualified, experienced, strongest and intellegent Democratic female candidate in history (not that I like or agree with Hillary) as a neck and neck competitor, but he stiffed her on the VP nom. Who has something against women? Well, Barrack might not, but McCain, certainly doesn't.
Another monster issue within our younger generation has been age. John McCain is no spring chicken, but I for one have always valued the lifelong experience of my Grandparents over my friends. Yet still, we now have a VP candidate at 44 years old with the nickname "Barracuda".
As a sportsman, I can't help but find value in someone from Alaska, a state that understands the importance of conservation but the importance of sportsman. In addition, she is in the state that holds the answer to our economy, independance on foriegn oil. Her husband works in the oil industry, you know, the same oil that flies Obama all over for his Socialist Parade!
Women, youth, economists and sportsmen, in the beginning, I had no faith in John McCain, I thought he was a liberal in disguise, but the more I learn, the more I like. Lets elect these two and protect what is most important to us.
Go America!
