Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sounds like a really good choice from a strategic standpoint.
Seriously? I know I'm not the target audience (that is, I have some sense) but it feels like pandering to me.

Well Tom, I think Gillian Anderson's daughter is named Piper...

Every time they showed Joe Biden last night I had to do the STEVE HOLT cheer from Arrested Development. JOE BIDEN!

The girls' names are much better than the boys', at least. It says little about her qualifications for the office, though.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
McCain's 72 and has battled cancer. Is a first-term Gov ready to serve as President?
Since God favors the Republicans, I'm sure He'll keep McCain alive....

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
but it feels like pandering to me.
I think pandering is the only thing the GOP has going for them right now, so...yeah. It's a good strategic choice.

Well, you have a woman which may help with the PUMA crowd, but also that helps deflect from McCain who does not have a great record on woman's rights.
You have someone who is NRA supported, that is really, really important where I live and I suspect in a lot of places. I think gun control is underrated in importance.
She is apparently strongly pro-life and anti-gay marriage, which should help appease social conservatives lukewarm about McCain.
She is an advocate for drilling, which fits in very well with McCain's energy policy.
She also is a Washington outsider, not a bad thing when everybody else is coming from the senate.
So, a good choice. I agree that experience is the risk with this choice.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
