The VP chair and you.?

I've been wacthing now for about 6 months how the democratic and republican campaigns have matured and evolved to the situation America now faces with its economy, foregin policies, and domestic issues( such as healthcare ect.) But I want to point out before you read on, I WAS a staunch republican, in fact I still am, conservitave to heart, and when John Mccain was the rep. nominee, I was already making phone calls to people I didnt know and rallying them to the republican party. Yet after Sarah Palin was choosen as the VP for reps I started to wonder. Mccain is over 70, he has heart issues and has been give a 25% chance of not seeing the end of his four years in office if hes elected. Now I was hoping the media would cacth on , but they didnt explain the situation as I would have liked. This gov. from Alaska is a few feet away from the presidency and she is still learning the ins and outs to political power on the national level. I would really like some input of your thoughts on her, should America give this "so called Maverick" a chance to govern this nation. I have since rallied to Obama and his ticket with Sen. Biden being the dem. VP. I do not agree on many of this tickets strategys for the next 4 years, but I am sure that these next few years with them will be well advised and governed in the affairs of all the topics I listed above. Please do not flame me as newly spawned liberal, I love this country as much as you, but I do not want it to be by chance in the hands of person who thinks dinosaurs and humans once lived with each other.
