Sarah Palin and Hilary Clinton

There’s some talk that Sarah Palin was chosen as McCain’s running mate, because of her potential to capture the disenfranchised Hilary vote.

That seemed to me unlikely. Hilary’s voters may be from the more conservative of Democrats, but have no comparison to Palin’s rabid right.

Then it occurred to me that both would be good in the role of the mother in The Manchurian Candidate.
