All you “Palin should run for Senate” folks do know that Palin passed up a practically slam-dunk Senate run in Alaska in 2004, only 2 years after Daddy Murkowski gave Baby Girl Murkowski his Senate seat ... and feelings were still quite raw against Baby Girl?
You know that, right?
Palin is an executive.
Not a legislator.
True, and she did a remarkable job as governor. But right now she's out in the wilderness.
I doubt if she'll be running for any executive office again. But her voice needs to be heard, and it needs to be heard on an official level. So the Senate seems to be a decent option, perhaps the only option.
Here's another way to look at it. Would the lib's rather have Palin where she is now, or have her in the US Senate?
