Palin would be the McCain to McCain—if he went too far left, she would have no problem announcing this to all, even resigning her vice presidency so she could run against him should he seek re-election as a Democrat-Lite in 2012.

That's right. Mrs. Palin is no Al Gore who wouldn’t stand up to Clinton's trashing of the Presidency.

I have even wondered about that myself. What if McCain went off the reservation? Would she quit the VP job, like she quit the oil and gas board in Alaska? I really think she would. In fact, I think it would be a no-brainer for her. She would do it on principle, but it would also be a brilliant political move. The GOP would certainly side with her over an old man deserting principle, and the democrats certainly wouldn't come to his rescue. She would immediately become the odds-on favorite in the next election. Of course McCain knows all of this, so Sarah will keep him in line. What other VP in the history of our country had such a noose around a President's neck?
