Sen. Hutchison on Palin: 'I don't know too much about her'

Republican Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, underwhelming in her enthusiasm, obviously has no clue who Sarah Palin is:

Well, a lot of energy, enthusiasm, youthfulness...I don't know too much about her...I'm sure that John has talked with her and is comfortable that she can take the helm. Everyone said early on that he should have a younger running mate, so he certainly has picked someone who is a real up-and-comer.

I think we now know why John McCain wanted to keep this pick a secret: Sarah Palin has such a thin record of accomplishmen that if her name were leaked before the pick, she'd have been ripped to shreds.
