Is Sarah still his running mate or will he chose a new one? If you chose Sarah her designer clothes are still in the belly of the plane.

In 2016 she will have had eight additional years to hone her expertise in science,meconomics and international affairs. There'll be no stopping her.

He is not running for president. I live in AZ and he is making all the moves to run for re-election to the Senate.
