Alaska Gov. Palin to be Named as McCain Running Mate
A senior campaign official in the John McCain campaign confirmed to FOX News on Friday that the presumptive Republican presidential nominee will name Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate.
Palin emerged earlier in the day as the hot name in the VP sweepstakes after reports circulated that two short-listers — Mitt Romney and Tim Pawlenty — were out of the running.
Adding fuel to the Palin candidacy was a report that a charter aircraft from Anchorage owned by a McCain supporter had arrived at a small airport outside Dayton, Ohio, where McCain has scheduled a noon ET rally to announce his choice.
FOX News reports the jet flew to Flagstaff, Ariz., on Thursday before heading for and landing in Middletown, Ohio. The airport manager
McCain campaign staff prepping the Dayton event told FOX News that all indications are that Palin would be the VP choice.
I might be able to get excited about this young lady! She just might give McCain’s campaign the energy it REALLY needs!
What happened to the noon time announcement? Can’t anyone stick with a plan anymore. Jeeeez! 
O/T: Why does Fox News have a picture of Mitt Romney attached to this story instead of one of Gov. Palin?

One John McCain Once Commented…Obama will do anything to win votes….
Who’s doing anything now in a bid to win votes?
According to Obama, it’s not that McCain doesn’t care…it’s just that he doesn’t get it!
And I couldn’t agree with that statement more.
People hate Barack because of what he’s achieved…if he were white…this would be a phenomenon…I really cannot believe people are already talking accolades for Palin…she’s just been introduced for F’s sake…and people are eating off her plate!
On the other hand, Barack was introduced years ago, and there’s still talk he still needs to introduce himself to America!
Yeah, this is the country that Voted in George Bush into office….get this…TWICE!
Barack’s promising to UNITE this freaking country of idiots who cannot spell nor tell where in the World Iran or Iraq is!
This guy’s promising to send all you imbeciles to College if you play your part…but I guess your heads are so far up McCain and Palin’s Bottoms to even smell the revolution sweeping across Blue Collar America!
What more do you want Barack to do? How much further should this guy grovel before some of you numnuts eventually get it that the US…is all hype and marketing…SuperPower my multi racial bottom.
I cry for this country…I really cry for sanity to prevail and that some intelligence, no matter how miniscule, may infect the national psyche!
