Sarah brings brings a great deal of white-bred “true” conservative appeal. Right-of-center independents now have a choice between voting for the first female VP and voting for a “nigger with a funny soundin’ name.” That’s not a bad gamble on McCain’s part. Plus, some people have the romantic notion that Alaska’s an uncivilized tundra where you have to work hard and be tough all of the time to survive.
The largest negative and what’s most striking is the contrast between her and McCain. Relative to John McCain, Sarah is young and attractive. It’s going to make people notice his frailty and his unappealing age spots and combover. I think his VP pick should have been someone uglier (like Lieberman or someone from PBS).
So, if Obama’s the honor roll jock and Biden’s the guy at the senior center who dances with the widows, then McCain’s your grandfather who was military and Palin.. well.. she’s your mother. And that’s just gross.
