To make sure

that risk management

is the best that

we can do to secure...

( Keyboard clicking )

But as you know, the turnpike

ends here in Augusta.

At that point...

What was her name?

Woman:

Once Alaska is allowed

to very responsibly and

safely develop our resources,

we'll lower costs of energy

across the United States,

and then we'd be able

to secure the nation

with a clean, domestic

supply of energy.

And I say that, Charlie,

even personally.

My one and only son,

my 18-year-old,

he just signed up

for the United States army.

He's at boot camp

right now.

And I'm thinkin',

you know,

this kid is doing all

that he can within his power

to help secure and defend

the United States.

Every elected official had

better be asking themselves,

are you doing as much also?

Are you doing

all that you can?

She's a star.

She's so passionately

pro-life that at age 44,

she decided

to keep a child

that she knew mid-term

had down's syndrome.

And there's a lot more

that the base will love.

She has an 80% approval

rating in Alaska.

- The highest of any governor in the country--

- 80%?

And she got it

by taking on the oil lobby

and the republican

establishment.

She's the one who killed

the bridge to nowhere.

( Laughs ) I fought Ted

Stevens for months

on that stupid

f***ing bridge.

Rick:
Plus, she is

a devout Christian.

She's got a son about

to deploy to Iraq,

attractive mother of five.

- She likes to moose hunt.

- Moose hunt?

This is a woman

with a gun, John.

I mean, come on, the base is

gonna be doing back flips.

What does salter think?

Uh, he's worried that

she's a creationist.

Yeah, and that's exactly

why the base will love her.

Women will love her.

Plus, she gives you

distance from bush.

Furthermore,

she's so outside the box

that she helps you

recapture the Maverick label,

which will win back

independents.

She's everything we need.

You don't think she might be

too outside the box?

Huh. Well, that's what makes

her such a Maverick choice.

So is picking lieberman.

That'd be pretty

goddamn mavericky.

Sir, we live in

the age of YouTube

and the 24-hour

news cycle.

How else

do you think a man

who has absolutely no

major life accomplishments

is beating an American

hero by double digits?

He's simply sailing on his

charisma and star power.

We need to create a dynamic

moment in this campaign

or we're dead.

You think she's that good?

She could be.

And we can vet her

in five days?

We can.

The vet has to be

as thorough for her

as it was for all

the other candidates.

Culvahouse says

he can do it, so...
