This brings up an interesting point. I would imagine that Hillary is pretty furious at this choice, and there is no way that she is going to simply sit back and let this woman potentially steal her future chances at being the first woman President.
And while I think Biden will be very hard on her in the debates, he still has to take great caution to not appear sexist. Hillary is under no such pressure. And by the time she gets done with this woman, I think it is going to be very hard for her supporters to vote for McCain in good faith.
Hillary might have considered staying out of the spotlight, had McCain chosen anyone else. Not now. Hell hath no fury, and all that.
