Friday, John McCain picked Alaska Governor Sarah Palin to be his running mate. He described her as exactly what this country needs.
KSPR caught up with a local man who is a family friend of Palin. His parents used to go to church with her. He described her as a life-long NRA member with a traditional alaskan family.
He also said Palin can be a breath of fresh air for Ozarkers.
"She really has been able to appeal to a lot of people, primarily because of her ethics and you really do feel that you can trust her word and I think thta's where she brings a strength to that," said family friend, Reggie McElhannon.
