Betty Guthrie   August 29th, 2008 11:20 pm ET

I am a woman and was not excited about McCain, however, the choice of Sarah Palin has brought me into his court. McCain is the top of the ticket and is not dying, to my knowledge, at least not in the near future. I would rather see the VP getting on the job training rather than a President getting on the job training.

Paul Yhonquea   August 29th, 2008 11:20 pm ET
