clipped from news.yahoo.com Speculation over McCain veep turns to Alaska gov. By LIZ SIDOTI, Associated Press Writer DENVER - John McCain kept his vice presidential pick a closely guarded secret hours before the high-stakes announcement Friday as top prospects seemed to drop away and speculation moved to darkhorse candidate Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. A GOP strategist close to the McCain campaign said all indications pointed to Palin, 44, a self-styled "hockey mom" and political reformer. The strategist spoke on condition of anonymity because he's not authorized by the McCain camp to discuss the matter. There was no confirmation from McCain or his advisers.
