Apparently, the world had forgotten about Mrs. Palin.  Or someone somewhere got some pretty good insider info, because her stock for VP candidate has skyrocketed overnight.  There’s also a rumor about her being headed to Ohio today.  Just so happens that McCain is scheduled to announce his VP pick there today…  Hmmm…

She could be just the extra bit that the McCain camp needs.  First, I think that Obama missed out when he chose not to pick Clinton as his VP.  He would have gotten a very popular candidate as well as a Woman.  McCain could pick up a small amount of votes for having a woman on the ticket.

Also, with all the uproar being about spending, spending, and more spending, McCain and Palin could be to of the best of the best conservatives as far as anti-earmarking goes.  And I like that.  It’s time to be fiscally conservative once again.  When the rest of the country is reportedly in a damn recession, why is the government spending more?

Adding Sarah Palin to the ticket would pretty much cement my pick for President.  Obama lost me months ago, but I don’t believe in wasted votes, so the other Presidential candidates (yes there are others) still have a chance.  Probably not with Palin on the ticket though.

Update: It’s official.  Even McCain’s campaign site has been updated already. (although the site doesn’t render very well for me in Firefox right now.  Maybe they’re still working on it.)
