"I admit I am completely shocked at the nomination of Palin when there were dozens of decent female candidates available... For reasons you seem bound to ignore(?) Palin is very decent as a female, a politician, and as a person. The whole country is available and you can get any mix of characteristics you want. You know, or should know, that the Republicans were on a disgruntled old stogie downward spiral, and much of that because the options were all viewed as unexciting and ineffective at getting any movement in the future, where stagnancy would smother us. We all want to see an America that has vitality for great evolutionary social and political movement. McCain could have picked from the usual suspects but anyone who is watching knows where those avenues led. All of them were attached to dwindling support for old machinations. McCain did what I thought would be impossible. He put new energy into the party that desperately needs to look at things in a new way and make serious efforts to reform and change what is going on. I haven't decided if I will vote for them or not but nobody can deny that we now have a good group of candidates who represent real change and reform on both sides.
