The choice of Sarah Palin as John McCain’s running mate today was a surprise to me… and just about everyone else I’ve been listening to all day. The more I hear about her, the more I like her.

Maybe she can straighten John McCain out when it comes to drilling for oil in Alaska. Take a look at what she said on Larry “drill drill drill” Kudlow’s show in June.

Among that…

• She said “no thanks” to Congress when they passed an earmark for that bridge to nowhere.
• She has a son being deployed to Iraq later this year.
• She has cut hundreds of projects out of the state budget.
• When gas prices went up this year and Alaska started earning some extra income from the higher price of oil, she arranged a rebate (I believe $1200) to every taxpayer in the state.
• She hunts, fishes and has five children.

Did I mention she was also a women?
