larry craig is out (no, not that, although... ), and sarah palin is in.
alaska governor sarah palin will be republican john mccain's vice-presidential running mate, cnn confirms.
interestingly (at least to me), she and i were students at the university of idaho at the same time. i edited the campus paper while she would have been a sophomore; perhaps it was my leftist rag which drove her into the arms of the nra. and even though she majored in journalism, i don't recall her at all (the paper wasn't part of the department, but a stand-alone entity; most of the staff were not journalism folks).
