McCain Throws Race... news at 11

Today McCain chose his Vice Presidential running mate, and in doing that he has all but given the race to the democrats. This is just about the worst possible selection he could have made. here's why:

1. The argument that Obama is inexperienced is not completely out the door. Obama has been a state senator for 6 years and in the national senate for 4. compared to Palins 2 years as governor of a very unpopulated state thats quite a bit. oh but wait, what was she doing before her governorship? thats right she was the mayer of a tiny podunk town in Alaska which had a population about the size of my high school. Not to mention that Obama's VP choice has 30 years in the senate.

2. Women will NOT vote for palin just becuase she is a woman. Anyone with half a brain (and lets face it men, women are basically smarter than us) will not fall for this sort of gimmick. She is Pro-Life and that doesn't sit well with the majority of women.

3. She won't help McCain get any other states. Alaska has a history of voting republican so there will be no change there, and outside of Alaska no one knows who this person is. period the end.

In my opinion, it's kinda a shame, because i like McCain. I like Obama a bit better, however and i was looking forward to an interesting tight race. too bad.
