Singer Rosanne Cash has offered some very good, and funny, reasons why she's a better choice for McCain's ticket than Gov GILF. Writing in the currrent issue of The Nation, the daughterof the Man in Black, Johnny Cash expounds on her platform:

Focus on the Family

...I have juggled a breast pump and a BlackBerry, and I know when to put the BlackBerry down. (To be perfectly honest, I did once send a text to the baby and tried to nurse my bass player. You learn from your mistakes.)

Reproductive Issues

I also believe that a teenager's pregnancy is a "private family matter." In fact, I believe that every woman's pregnancy is a "private, family matter." (I bet the GOP never thought of making that leap!)

  Church and State

Like the Governor, I now also believe that my will is perfectly aligned with God's will...I knew it was God's will that I win the Grammy in 2007 for my last record, but Bob Dylan won. This is clearly the work of Satan..

Foreign policy 

Here's where I really shine. Governor Palin got her first passport in 2007. I got my first passport in 1970, when the Governor was only 6 years old!...I, too, live very close to a foreign country. Canada is less than 400 miles from my home in New York City, and you never know when it might become necessary to invade a sovereign nation that has not attacked us, as we learned the hard way.

She also discusses ethics ("I once fired my assistant for making a pass at my husband, so I can totally understand this!"), higher education, Iraq and the importance of name recognition poing out that her "dad's head (or an eerie facsimile) adorns a state airline."
