Running mates or limping mates??

The first meaningful decision by both the Presidential candidates has been taken , sans the regular promises,plans & change they usually talk of,both Obama and Mccain have chosen their running mates. Obama has shown great responsibility in choosing the perfect candidate(Joseph Biden) who would be just a heartbeat away from presidentship . On the contrary what was Mccain thinking ?He chose Sarah Palin to be his immediate subordinate contradicting all the statements he has made in the last 6 months in the agony against Obama . His claim about Obama's thin resume,readiness to lead the country and a not so known background have just vanished in thin air owing to his choice of Sarah Palin,who herself is not the most qualified and experienced people in the republican party .

If Mccain wanted to cash in the female votes , there were quiet a few ladies who exhibit immense skill and leadership than Ms Palin herself. While the world was contemplating the popular Governer Bobby Jindal (Indian origin) be named as the vice president candidate by the republicans , the party choose to think out of the box which just turns out to be out of the mind.Also republicans were always known to add to their count with the family values votes ,how is Ms Palin going to justify her 17 yr old daughter being 5 month pregnant as any legitimate family value .The republicans are bogged with an uphill task which seems to be climbing the everest without an end. While I sincerely hope for a close fought battle ,I would eagerly await the result of this bout,as our country's interests also lies in this thrilling race.
