DAYTON, Ohio (AP) - Saying she’s “exactly” what he and the
country need, John McCain has picked Alaska Governor Sarah Palin
(PAY’-lin) as his running mate.
McCain introduced Palin during a raucous rally in Dayton, Ohio.
The Arizona senator said he made his pick after looking for a
political partner who can best help him “shake up Washington.”
Palin, a conservative with a maverick reputation, thus becomes
the first woman named to a spot on a Republican ticket. She
declared herself “honored” to be chosen as she stood by a beaming
McCain in her first few seconds in the national spotlight.
Unlike Barack Obama’s running mate Joe Biden, who attacked
McCain sharply in his debut last week, Palin was indirect in her
initial attemps to elevate McCain over Obama.
Palin told the crowd, “There is only one candidate who has
truly fought for America and that man is John McCain.”
