    Not a Political After thought

    The democrats need to take Palin seriously. She has fired-up the republican base in a way they were not fired up by McCain. They will come out and vote now instead of sitting this one out. It was a smart choice by McCain. Not picking Hillary Clinton was a mistake by Obama that will cost him the election and we will all suffer through a McCain presidency. Our children and possibly their children will suffer the decisions of a conservative Supreme Court after McCain appoints at least 2 justices.
