It should be, “If I were . . .” in the subjunctive mood.
I am admittedly not as much a Palin fan as most here, but I would rather have my dog Peanut as C in C than Barry. I would give Palin a B, with points reduced for her inability to effectively communicate her message to the middle. My dog Peanut would get a “D” for fleas. Barry would get expelled for ineligibility.
Palin still has time to get her grade up, but it will have to be soon. I much prefer Allen West, but believe that if Palin were to run with West as her running mate that I would be pleased. I’m not sure that ticket would win without some widespread anger at the current president.
One issue we are facing right now is a moderate/liberal backlash against the Tea Party.

I'm with you there. I'm quite sure Peanut would be spending much less on parties and vacations while we face crisis after crisis.

There's been a backlash since the day the Tea Party got started. However, things seem to be building to a perfect storm that will sweep 0 and his cohorts from power. Anyone besides the perpetually clueless 30% of bottom feeders can see he has no leadership qualities, and is seemingly incapable of making basic common sense decisions. I predict the economy is about to take another big hit, as gas continues to climb towards $5/gallon. That is a recipe for 0 to get run out of town on a rail.
