Remember, Teddy Roosevelt was only Governor of New York for 2 years before he was on the ticket (and of course he became President almost immediately after becoming VP). Yes, he also charged up San Juan Hill. But his other experiences were a hodge podge of important and interesting jobs, but not really the stuff that would make him President at such a young age.

What he had, though, was character and a passion for fighting corruption.

And of course, he was good with a gun.

Palin is this generation’s Teddy Roosevelt!!!
