[Colonel Flagg]

I originally thought since Obama obviously was trying to address experience with his constituency in picking Biden, that McCain would try to either ease the Ultra-conservative bloc with a "Huckabee clone" or perhaps move toward the center with an independent-minded social pragmatist like Tom Ridge. Instead we get him tapping a female republican 1st-term governor with no other political experience besides being the mayor of a small Alaska village.

Now, instead of questioning Obama's foreign policy experience, I'm questioning McCain's judgment. Not a good position to place an independent voter.
