What does the Vice President do again?

The nomination of a candidate as vastly under-qualified as Sarah Palin as McCain's Vice Presidential candidate is a blatant attempt by the Republican party to manipulate the sensationalistic mass media and an insult to the Women's Rights movement. Moreover, this places Palin in an interesting dilemma. Her original platform as governor was, in addition to reform promises, a commitment to advance Alaskan interests before national interests, but as the Vice Presidential candidate, she'll need to switch her priorities.¹ Can she do this without failing to keep her commitment to her home state? The clip below demonstrates how poorly qualified she is for the position and her need to reconcile old loyalties with new ones.
