This just in: McCain VP Pick IS Alaska Governor Sarah Palin

Sarah Palin, Alaska Governor
According to the drudge report Mccain’s VP pick is none other than (hotness factor of 7) Sarah Palin. And now according to Wikipedia:
Sarah Heath Palin (born February 11, 1964) is the current Governor of Alaska, and a member of the Republican Party. She is the first female governor of Alaska, its youngest, and is the first governor born after Alaska achieved statehood. Brought to statewide attention because of her whistleblowing on ethical violations by state Republican Party leaders,[1] she won election in 2006 by first defeating the incumbent governor in the Republican primary, then a former Democratic Alaskan governor in the general election.
She is the Republican vice presidential candidate for the November 2008 election.
Wow, that was fast. I’m impressed. Sarah is also a former runner-up Miss Alaska Beauty Pageant… so she was one of the ones that said “I want World Peace” and actually meant it when they asked her what she wanted to accomplish when she grew up. She also won Miss Congeniality.
Update: 7:42am CDT - the note on her being th VP pick on Wikipedia has been pulled.
Update: 8:26am CDT - According to a spokesperson Palin will be at a State Fair in Alaska and is not in Ohio. That said, this could be dis-information either way, when you see a a jet charted from Alaska and a woman and 2 teenage kids get off, that tells me a late night flight was in order.
Update: 9:13am CDT: CNBC now reporting on Palin. On the previous comment, you’ll notice that it mentions Palin will be at a state fair but also you’ll note that they are saying Tim Pawlenty, is supposed to be at a State Fair, I think it’s safe to say that the previous source is mixing up their names.
Update: 9:47am CDT: Foxnews states “Breaking News >> FOX News Confirms Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin Will Be McCain Running Mate ” but the link itself is still speculation.
Update: 9:52am CDT: CNN reports confirmation. Palin is the running mate.
(CNN) – Sen. John McCain has chosen Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin to be his vice-presidential candidate on the Republican ticket for the White House in November, a senior McCain campaign official has told CNN.
Republican VP
Update: 10:14am CDT: Finnally Foxnews has updated their site. Their freaking web-master is slow as crap.

Oh boy! Now it gets interesting!
There were rumors of this flying around, and I even blogged about it, but Palin just had a baby and said she wouldn’t run. She is an awesome governor and a true conservative. I was hoping McCain would pick her.

Anyone think she looks like Tina Fey?

Yes, but somehow hotter.
Y’know… I think I’d hit it.

Mimsey: Tina Fey? No. She looks like the fantasy from every guy I know of the “sexy libriaian” from a ’70s porno movie. Very hot.
Finley: Down Boy!
Actually, this woman is the real deal. She is intelligent, conservative and perfect for this ticket. Honestly, ther is NO better pick, and even though I have been ambivalent towards Mccain so far, I’m excited now.
Did I mention she is very pro second amendment?
Guys, I tell you we have a race now…
