Is Palin nothing more than a BLUFF? Was she a bluff from day one?

As bizarre as it may seem, the possibility that Palin is basically just a fill-in until the "real" VP candidate is announced is starting to make some sense.

It would be an enormous political gamble, but Palin did what they wanted her to - she stole the limelight from the very successful Democratic convention and distracted attention from Obama's brilliant speech.

Is it possible that she's there simply to buy the Republicans time?

For the record, I think she's not going anywhere, but the possibility that she's just a placeholder crossed my mind.
