Sarah Palin divinely chosen?!?!

According to Steve Schmidt, a top-ranking McCain campaign official, Sarah Palin believed that she had some help in securing the spot just below John McCain on the 2008 Republican ticket. The Associated Press reports on a conversation between the campaign staffer and the would be vice-president:

Schmidt said he asked Palin about her serenity in the face of becoming “one of the most famous people in the world.” He quoted her as saying, “It’s God’s plan.”
