Quick, without looking it up, how much can you tell me about the current governor of Alaska? Any of you from Alaska can use your least-favorite Dakota instead.
Bill Walker.
I don't know why I know that.

In one of McCain's '08 debates with Obama, he was talking about defense contractors. He was talking about unethical behavior, and he said if they tried that under him, you will know their names. He came off as both strong and competent.
Maybe if he had taken the tact with the banking crisis: We will bail out the same banks who got us in this mess in the first place, because we must, because the economy demands it. And then we will use Sherman Anti-Trust in a lawful, orderly way to break up the big boy banks. This whole business of 'too big to fail' is a bad situation to be in.
If McCain had taken a position that strong and that straightforward, I really wonder, even if Palin had been his VP.
By 2012, Palin had been ridiculed and mocked for 4 years. Nobody is going to win with her on the ticket, they'd be laughed out of the building.
