>>Alaska GOP thrilled Palin plucked for VP<<

LOL, that's a pretty bogus headline considering the lengthy trail of footprints she's left on the backside of the Alaska Republican Party establishment. Her hardcore supporters love it, but it's hardly universal...

Also responding to McCain’s pick, a spokesman for U.S. Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential campaign said now that Palin is in the race it won’t affect Obama’s strategy in Alaska.

“We’re still treating it as a battleground state,” said the spokesman, Jeff Giertz.

Battleground state? LOL!! That's the funniest response I've seen yet to her being named. Obama might as well save his money and spend it where it could do him some good.
