I just heard Laura Ingrahm state how excited and energized Republicans are about the Palin choice. I wonder why they weren't so excited and energized over the McCain pick.

I remember back in 1996 Bob Dole stating how his VP choice of Jack Kemp would energize Republicans. Of course, we all know how that energy dissipated.

But it does give one pause when a party relies on a VP choice to provide what that party's presidential choice should provide.
