The one thing that bothered me about Sarah was during her speech at the convention. She said parents with special needs children would have an "advocate" in the White House.

Does this mean another bloated government program?

I know she has a lot of great qualities, foremost her position on drilling. But I want to see more of her record as governor during these four years before I commit to her as POTUS.

She jumped the shark when she came out for amnesty and global warming legislation. Sarah can stay in Alaska.

Yes you are correct, BUT no matter how GOOD you are as governor, no matter if you could walk on water, if you CANT deliver your message, you will be un electable and its going to be a LONG 8 years...

Republicans need to get away from porky pig syndrome and start electing people who can talk the talk (and of course govern)

No.

From late October:

In a speech in Pittsburgh, Penn., Palin pledged that a McCain-Palin administration would fully fund the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, exempt disability programs from the domestic discretionary spending freeze they plan to institute next year, and will provide school vouchers so families can send their special needs children to the school of their choice.

It’s my understanding that there is already money allocated for Special Needs children, it just hasn’t been disbursed. She wasn’t talking about any additional money, just making sure that what was already allowed, was given in a timely and efficient manner.
