  John McCain is scheduled to announce his running mate in just about two hours, but so far, no one seems to have any idea whom he has picked. All morning, the likely candidates have been dropping like flies. It's not Mitt Romney. It's not Tim Pawlenty.

      CNN is all over the speculation that Sara Palin, first term governor of Alaska will be McCain's pick for VP. While I have no clue whether this is true or not (reporters are so gullible), I would give McCain credit for a surprise move. Picking the first woman VP... oh, wait, the Democrats did that twenty-four years ago. Well, she certainly brings a wealth of experience to the job, you know, as a first term governor of a state with six people and ten million caribou (lot of oil though). She's definitely bring in those angry Hillary Clinton voters with her rabid anti-abortion views. And of course, her squeaky clean administration will bolster McCain's ethical problems, provided no one mentions this little problem. I'm skeptical. The GOP doing anything vaguely progressive is pretty much unheard of. Also, GOP mouthpiece, ABC News, begs to disagree on Palin. Update: AP says it is Palin: John McCain tapped little-known Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin to be his vice presidential running mate on Friday in a startling selection on the eve of the Republican National Convention. Two senior campaign officials disclosed McCain's decision a few hours before the Republican presidential nominee-to-be and his newly-minted running mate appeared at a rally in swing-state Ohio. Palin, like McCain, is a conservative with a maverick streak who has shown a willingness to clash with others in her own party. A self-styled hockey mom and political reformer, she has been governor of her state less than two years.A maverick like McCain. Really. Well the chattering classes will eat this up. Expect lots of talk about how McCain will get all the Hillary supporters with his move. Can't wait to see the debate between her and Biden on foreign policy.
