My back-home types have been telling me this is about solidifying the base, with the creationists and the rural types, as well as giving an 'out' for people who can say 'see, I'm not bigoted for voting against the black guy, I'm voting for the chick!'
Personally I also think that anyone they picked was going to crash and burn against Biden in debates, so this will be a Bush v. Gore-type defense where they lower expectations for Palin as far as they can and then call Biden a bully. I do not think it will work near as well.
