1. I dont know how much of a big deal this is

Everyone was updating their pages...maybe all her action happened at the last minute because they were late to get the VP offer. And maybe they just added in a lot of extra bs. I don't see this going anywhere far to be honest.

2. I was reading it as it was scrubbed AND the dairy stuff was deleted.

I found something interesting in comments on a blog about her. I wonder if there's anything to this?

I live and work in Juneau, Alaska. I know Sarah and many others that know and work with her. We are shocked by this pick. She is an interesting person and did step into a difficult role as a new governor in a state being run by old boys that had lost touch with the people and were making deals behind closed doors. However, we also know this is over her head. She could learn to do the job but she doesn't have what it takes to do it from "day one." I say this as someone that knows her, voted for her and have voted for most of the republicans in Alaska for over 14 years. She is not as "perfect" as McCain will attempt to market her! There is meat on the bones of the mess she is in with the state trooper issue. We also wonder why she waited 7 months to even tell the public, including her staff she was about to have a baby. McCain will say she is popular and I know the numbers say she is. However, this is in part because she followed a governor that was out of touch and didn't care about us. She also just gave us all a $1200 energy dividend on top of our normal dividend. You will also hear that she cut the budget, but that isn't true. The total budget went up 30% this year and she did it by taking advantage of the higher oil revenues and a new tax on oil companies. This will appeal to some dems but I know personally local reps are not happy with it. There is just too many issues and questions that only we in Juneau know about to outline here but I must say knowing her like we do it likely has far more to do with her "look" and being a "women" and he thinks he can market her to win some votes. Bad pick from where I sit and right now that is looking out my window at her governor's house.

And I swear if I hear another cable news tool call her a "maverick reformer" I'm going to scream. This is such obvious spin, spin, spin. Everyone was handed the same damn talking points and the keywords were "maverick" and "reformer". I could gag.
