Alaska has 3 electoral votes while Hawaii has 4. Meaning Alaska is like an atom, it's 99.999% empty. LOLOL

Alaska ranks 47th in population. As recently as 1996, she was a city councilwoman, and mayor of a small town four years ago.

It is a good pick for the extreme right. She is anti-choice, anti-gay rights, anti-environment, and pro-oil. Heck, she even wants to drill in ANWR, which even McCain opposes. Oh, and her husband works for BP.

She also has the murky issue of the investigation of her firing of the Commisioner of Public Safety in connection with her office's attempt to get her ex-brother-in-law fired as a state trooper. That investigation will continue during the campaign. If it uncovers anything, then her rep as a fighter of corruption also flies out the window.

The excitement of picking someone who is not pro choice will fade quickly...
