I believe McCain is going after the pro-life people and the evangelicals. Mitt Romney changed his position a while back from pro-life to pro-choice and I think that hurt his chances as VP with McCain. Being a Mormon also works against him. The country does not know this woman and I believe it makes the Obama and Biden ticket a very strong force. We will get to know her in the next few months. But, I believe it will be an uphill battle for McCain with the general population. Republicans can only hope that Mrs. Palin comes on strong and confident and makes a great impression with people.
