Great VP choice, it solidifies the base, and expands appeal to some untapped demographics. Looking at the H. Clinton message boards, many of Hil’s supporters felt they were told to sit down by the DNC, and consider this the true ticket of change. 90% of the posters in the HC forums on this topic were moved by the pick of Palin and her introduction, and are switching from indy and dem to this ticket!

Lots of Americans make their decisions based on anything but issues or capabilities of candidates. Sex, skin color, etc. This is a perfect example. Obama and Clinton have almost identical platforms. Clinton and McCain have nothing in common. Yet, there are people who’d vote for Clinton over McCain but for McCain over Obama.
