I first heard about this yesterday, did a bit of research and was hoping and hoping that McCain would pick Sarah Palin to be his running mate. As she is pure conservative. I don't much like McCain myself, but with her on the ticket, it makes it promising.
Of course it is 9:30am, and things are not officially announced, so he might very well pick someone else, but, if he does pick Palin, I think it'll be a great ticket and I think the liberals will have a hard time beating them.
** Edited ** And to announce it this morning, totally overshadowing the DNC convention was perfect!
