While I don’t think McCain is the best person for the office of the president (yet closer to that ideal than Obama) the main reason I will vote for Palin is that I would not want to see a Justice Hilary Clinton on the court. The Republican machine at this point is running on the presumption that the core conservative vote will not abandon them, and because of the person the Dems have up, that is true this time around. While Obama himself is bad enough, an even worse thought would be Justice Clinton — heaven help us — but with him in office, I could see that happening.
