Sarah Palin actually said...
I know that when Senator McCain gave me this opportunity, he had a short list of highly qualified men and women. And to have made that list at all it was a privilege. And to have been chosen brings a great challenge. I know that it will demand the best that I have to give and I promise nothing less.
