that I L-O-V-E that McCain picked a working mom of 5. I haven't read too much about her yet and know little about her politics, but I am still excited to see her on the ticket. (Ok, maybe partly because my redneck relatives will be forced to vote for a woman 'cause there's no way in heck they are voting for a black man with the middle name of--well, I think we all know by know. )
But she is going to have a lot of juggling to do. It is hard for me to balance 3 kids and a high-pressure job with long hours. I can't imagine balancing 5, including a special needs infant while on the campaign trail--or as VP. But I'm sure she can manage, and I look forward to reading more about how she does it all.
Go working moms!

I am also thrilled to see how well rounded this race is, at least on the surface. I would hate to think that the country "isn't ready" for a woman to be a serious contender for the highest office.
I think it was very ballsy of him to pick her. I've always admired McCain for going against the "rules". Even if it is a ploy, good for him. And I totally agree about the five-kid thing. How on earth will she do it?
