I personally wish he had picked Meg Whitman, former CEO of Ebay. Or Mitt Romney. I think he had to pick a woman, because if he picked a rich white male, all the Democrats could just stand there and be all "Oh, look.. Republicans.. MORE OF THE SAME."
Meg Whitman was, y'know, the CEO of one of the internet/world's most influencial companies, would have a hold in Microsoft-Land/Silicon Valley (aka the West Coast). And I don't think she'd stoop to calling herself a hockey mom. And didn't have a scandal breathing down her neck. Okay, the scandal was that Palin was trying to get her brother in law (who was abusing her sister) fired, but.. y'know.
The problem, I feel, with the Republican party is that they should be embracing smart, powerful, rich women who earned their money. People can't get over the fact that Palin was once a bbbeeeeauty queen, instead of the fact that she's the governor of Alaska, in a biracial marriage, and y'know has an 80% approval rating. Don't like it! Not saying that that's a bad thing, but you do notice that Republican women always tend to be perfectly coifed and pantsuited with in an inch of their lives.
I really want the Republican party to push out all the crazy evangelicals, and get me a new Barry Goldwater so I can be proud again.
at least it's not pawlenty
