McCain Picks 'Hockey Mom' for VP

GOP Presidential nominee John McCain has picked Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin for his VP, a self-styled "hockey mom" and little known Alaska governor.
Palin, 44, is a first-term governor, pro-life advocate, former beauty queen -- and hockey player. She's been described as "tough as nails" -- and when she was young, her father reportedly took her moose hunting in the middle of the night.
She is the first female running mate on a Republican presidential ticket.
The pick comes as a surprise, as Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty was thought to be the top choice.
Sarah is a mom to five -- Bristol, Willow, Piper, Track and Trig, who was born in April with Down syndrome.



















Alexis(20yr), we are not afraid of a little color in the White House, we’re afraid of ignorance and inexperience. When a man who is said to be intelligent totally disregards a large segment of the voters you have to wonder if the elevator travels to the top floor. I don’t have to wonder about your ignorance it shows in your writing and spelling.
