John McCain seems to have taken my advice by going for some counter-programming in his VP nominee. I humorously suggested that he go for an Obama "clone," since with Biden, he was "cloned" by Obama. He listened, but chose a "Hillary" instead. Though this one delivers a speech like Ronald Reagan--assured, whimsical, on point, and endearingly, with a sharp point when needed.
Sarah Palin wouldn't have been my first choice--but I'm crazy about her as a person, as a professional, and especially as a speaker. With his pick, McCain got people talking about his campaign again--hopefully for him, he won't be overshadowed.
Doesn't he look like Popeye in this picture?

He DOES look like Popeye!
