It's not about who is going to vote, it never is... it's about who is going to contribute MONEY. If you don't get that at this point you really need to take a closer look at how politics have been handled in this country for the past 100 years.
An Alaska VP is not going to make Republicans take out their checkbooks to write donations to McCain. It may make many Americans from large cities take out their checkbooks for Obama. New York wasn't ever going to vote for McCain... motivating New Yorkers to send more money to Obama was a bad political move.
Do you know anyone MORE likely to send money to McCain now that he has chosen an Alaskan VP? I don't. On the other hand, like him or not, Biden brings a hell of a lot more financial backing to Obama's campaign than many other choices would have brought.
