The possibility of Hutchinson was batted around even before Palin was announced. I like her, but there really would've been no point to that selection; you then would've had FOUR currently serving U.S. Senators as the nominees of both major Parties. Yawn.

Whether it had been Palin or somebody else, putting a Governor on the ticket was a smart move by McCain.
