Line 29:
Line 29: − When asked in the past about being McCain's vice presidential pick, she responded on Larry Kudlow of CNBC: "[A]s for that V.P. talk all the time, I’ll tell you, I still can’t answer that question until somebody answers for me what is it exactly that the V.P. does every day?"<ref>[http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0808/12969.html Palin dissed veep job]</ref> Obviously that answer isn't to be taken literally. And you can be sure that she knows what is expected from her position.
Not sure this is needed. It's obviously a tongue-in-cheek deflection by Palin; why repeat things that will be taken out of context?
On August 29, 2008, Palin was announced to be the Vice Presidential nominee for Republican Senator John McCain<ref>http://www.newsmax.com/headlines/sarah_palin_vp/2008/08/29/126138.html</ref>. The selection was a surprise, as those in the media were expecting [[Minnesota]] Governor [[Tim Pawlenty]] or former [[Massachusetts]]'s Governor [[Mitt Romney]]. [[Conservapedia]] was among the first to spread the news. Palin adds youth and executive experience to the ticket. She is the second female Vice Presidential candidate of a major party in U.S. history and the first one on a Republican ticket. The last female Vice Presidential candidate was 24 years ago.
