Not 100% sure about the governor. I’d vote for her though.
Unless we magically develop some other candidate within the next two years, I see no one else who can legitimately claim Conservative credentials and unify the base as Palin can (nor pack in the crowds). It was sickening what we were served up in the ‘08 primary. Liberals and egomaniacs. We were really hurt when the Dems took out Sen. George Allen in ‘06. He was the person I believed was the odds-on strongest choice to run in ‘08.
