Sarah Palin will be a great VP

That's the consensus of Republicans up here. Everyone loves her. Every one admits they never heard of her before McCain picked her, but they think she is great. The general feeling is any one who can raise five kids AND become state governor has got a lot on the ball. The other observation is that the other names (Romney, Huckabee, Guiliani and company) are boring and dull. Up here a gutsy and independent pick plays better than a conventional and boring pick.
