From Obama spokesman Bill Burton:
"Today, John McCain put the former mayor of a town of 9,000 with zero foreign policy experience a
heartbeat away from the presidency. Governor Palin shares John McCain's commitment to overturning
Roe v. Wade, the agenda of Big Oil and continuing George Bush's failed economic policies -- that's not
the change we need, it's just more of the same," said Bill Burton, Obama Campaign Spokesman.

'Take two: a much more respectful, classy statement from Chicago, this time in the names of Barack Obama
and Joe Biden.
"We send our congratulations to Governor Sarah Palin and her family on her designation as the republican
nominee for Vice President. It is yet another encouraging sign that old barriers are falling in our politics.
While we obviously have differences over how best to lead this country forward Governor Palin is an
admirable person and will add a compelling new voice to this campaign."'
