But I would never support him for the top slot simply because he has a New York metropolitan view of the the USA. And America is more than New York City.

As peggy Noonan wrote today in the Wall Street Journal:

"I’m bumping into a lot of critics who do not buy the legitimacy of small town mayorship (Palin had two terms [6 years] in Wasilla, Alaska, population 9,000 or so) and executive as opposed to legislative experience.

But there are close to a hundred thousand small towns with ten thousand people or less. “You do the math,” the conservative pollster Kellyanne Conway told me. “We are a nation of Wasillas, not Chicagos.”
