Actually, Governor Palin would be best served by fulfilling her role as Governor. Serving two or six more years as Governor would broaden her executive experience, something expected of Presidential candidates. A Senate seat does not broaden executive experience.

I would urge her to travel abroad on trade junkets from time to time, in order to gain more international experience. I would also suggest she find other ways to enhance that portion of her resume.

I would also suggest she help other candidates across the nation in 2010. It would help her develop some chits for future use.

By 2012 or even 2016, she will have become a seasoned formidable political adversary.

I saw genuine hurt in Sarah eyes last night during her final stump speech in Nevada around 1 AM. She was near tears and I was too as the truth of what happened tonight was dawning on her, and she reflexively prayed for the crowd with unscripted “God Bless You! God Bless You all!” I wept last night as she spoke and prayed for joy and strength for her.

And as she stood on the stage with McCain tonight, I saw her same tears. They were the tears of a joyous competitor and champion, who ran the race TO WIN and could not understand why she didn't. I don't think she understood McCain's hesitancy or his old man reluctance to put 100 percent in the race TO WIN IT. I think she felt hurt by him, frankly. She was hurt. She was crucified. McCain never took off his Marquis of Queensbury gloves. Sarah did. I pray she can forgive him.

I worry she is going to slink into some of the stranger elements of her charismatic beliefs as a balm to the wounds of this loss. I am a charismatic, so I know whereof I speak.

That said, the U.S. doesn't have six more years without someone like Palin in high office.

IMHO, she needs to

1. Stay away from the weird beliefs of the “Apostolic Prophetic Cult” that her AOG church got very muddy with this year at some fake revival thing called Lakeland and Todd Bentley on “God TV’.

2. Stay away even from TBN as well.

3. Trust that God “works all things together for good for those who love Him”... and trust that He is good and has a plan for her in this country.

Sarah, trust that the Lord is not going to allow you to fall off the face of the earth ala Katherine Harris. We know that your position even as Governor of Alaska has been compromised now, but stick to your guns. I wonder if McCain realizes the damage he's done; how much harder it will be for you to govern now. He did not run to win. He ran to show.

Romney will be her biggest competitor if she wants to run for President. He is a nightmare Mormon and compromiser on moral issues like abortion and gay marriage, as well. The worst thing she could do would be to hook up with him, despite some of those people in the “Apostolic Prophetic Cult” who, like James Dobson, insanely promoted Romney over McCain.

She should just know that she is in our prayers and the country does still need her. She grew in leaps and bounds in the past ten weeks. It was amazing to see her final speech compared to her first acceptance speech in Ohio. The sweetness and joy were still there, but after the trial by fire she's gone through, it was the speech of a seasoned warrior at the end.

We shall NOT forget her courage and neither shall her God.

given what we just witnessed yesterday, your statement seems slightly ironic. apparently millions of voters no longer care about prior executive experience
