>>OBama talks about change and talks a good talk, but no walk; what'd he do? Picks a DC insider, career politician to be his running mate. What'd McCain Do? He talks change and walks change, he picks an outsider, woman with a solid track record. IMO McCain is the one interested in REAL Change, not just convention and political hype.

Remember how she got to be governor - taking on corruption in her own party, cancelling GOP pork Stevens brought to Alaska and taking on big oil. Yeah, sounds like a very good start.

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
