Did mccain overlook more qualified female candidates?

Or did he just go for the hot chick?
What about Elizabeth Dole or Olympia Snowe?

Elizabeth Dole -
served in both the Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush presidential administrations, and currently serves as a United States senator from North...

Carolina. She was elected to the Senate in 2002 and is the first female senator for North Carolina.
She is a member of the Republican Party and former chair of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. She is married to former U.S. Senate Majority Leader and 1996 Republican presidential nominee Sen. Bob Dole.

Olympia Snowe -
is the senior United States Senator from Maine.
A moderate Republican, Snowe has become widely known for her ability to influence the outcome of close votes and Senatorial filibusters, in part making her one of the most influential modern U.S. Senators.
In 2006, she was named one of America's Top Ten Senators by Time Magazine. Congressional Quarterly noted that her presence at the negotiating table in the 107th Congress was nearly a necessity. Her political popularity in her home state is the highest of any current U.S. Senator; as of November 22, 2006, she enjoyed a 79 percent approval rating in her home state of Maine.

Both of these women are more qualified than Palin. Were they too old, not hot enough, what?

FACT:
At McDonald's 143 days of experience will not qualify you for District Manager.

FACT:
Amblessed completely lacks any intellectual honesty.

Why are you trying to peddle this lie? A senators work experience does not only include the time congress is in session.

All mentioned are: accomplished, very intelligent, strong, competent, and have solid, uncompromising core values and experience - don't just hate because of looks, it's shallow.

I've never noticed her looks.But,what can I say,I;m a heterosexual woman.
I think Sarah Palin is the best candidate.I'm sure all the others my be good as well.But,I like Sarah Palin.I'm not that good with politics but,I know what's important.And I know who I think will help lead this country in a better direction.

***All mentioned are: accomplished, very intelligent, strong, competent, and have solid, uncompromising core values and experience***

So... you're saying Palin has the SAME amount of experience as the other two?

Amblessed and Rickd -

Hmmm. Doesn't seem strange to address you together.
It is not about looks, it is about experience.
WHY would McCain pass over two EXTREMELY qualified women for Palin?

Give them a while... 'amblessed' needs time to consult a smart person for his response.

He needs to find others to consult with if the best they can do is
Obama severely lacks character and leadership - would be bad for America.
lol

He's posted (and probably pasted) that answer a dozen times...

lol.
