    I'm afraid rabid Hillary supporters might take the bait, but I hope not.

    OK, I've scrolled through this entire thread.

    Outside of 21 and luggie, I would love to hear what some of the SportsJournalists.com women think, especially those on the left.

    I was hoping I would get to read some interesting takes on this thread, but it's filled yet again with the same close-minded leftists offering nothing close to an original thought.

    Finally, there have been at least 50 posts that if they were made by a conservative would have elicited tremendous wrath for being anti-woman. That outrage seems to be missing here. So, I ask you, Dickens, is that because this woman is a Republican?

    I asked my question first. And I made none of those "anti-woman" posts.

    It must suck to be trodden on like your people are.

    There are a lot of people, all over America, looking for pictures of Sarah Palin right now. It's precisely what the GOP intended.

    And McCain's indicting Obama's celebrity...

    pallister, I'm not a woman, but I am a pretty hardcore Democrat voter, and I honestly have no idea how to take this pick. For all I know, it could make either side win a landslide. Chuck Todd called it "high risk/high reward." I guess that's about right. I think we're just all pretty much in shock right now.

    Wall Street Journal has posted portions of its profile of Palin for the new magazine they are doing.
    She likes to run at midnight and eat moose and caribou

    Sounds like another place I'm familair with for those politically over-the-top and out-of-touch.

    I'll throw this out there:

    If McCain was genuinely just looking for a woman on the ticket -- for whatever reason -- I would have though Hutchinson would be the choice.

    So, perhaps he really liked her.

    I would never of made this choice for a VP if I thought I was winning.

    Again, I ask, why would any Hillary Clinton supporter be swayed by a woman who is an anti-abortion Christian conservative?
