McCain selected her because 1.) She was a woman, and he wanted to appeal to female voters, and 2.) She's a wacko right-wing, gun-totin' born-again redneck who would be better suited to a trailer park than the Oval Office. And that was the the constituency he was appealing to on that count.

In simpler terms, McCain knew he was beat unless he chose a total 'game changer'.. a person who would compete with Obama's votes.. so he chose a hot woman. If McCain had chosed a man, he would not be able to take away any of Obama's votes..
The thinking was that she would steal all of the people that were going to vote for hillary...
on a side note- if you divide the campain spending to votes, Obama spent $10 for every vote and McCain spent 10 cents for every vote..
amazing..
For the love of God, I hope Obama gets this country back on track, or at the very least the GOP gets its act together and realigns itself with the fundamentals that they were once known for..
