I’m not dumb enough to write in Palin’s namne if the state in which I vote looks like a close race in 2012 - we can’t risk another 4 years for 0bama. But if my state looks like a solid GOP win (or loss), will I write her name in? You betcha.

Not exactly. That law does not go into effect until states with enough electors to equal 270 EV have passed similar laws, have signed the compact, and Congress approves the compact. That won't happen before the 2012 election, if ever.
