From your page:
...”Prokopton : One who has become aware that he is ignorant”.....
It is more than just a payback to McCain....should Palin run it is vital she establish strong political connections in the white house... and McCain is a part of that and looks to be so since JD is not doing well In arizona.
Once there she can influence him more than he her..he knows what she stands for. But for the time being there is no one who can go it alone to the whitehouse without connections there. She can influence the other side via McCain as well since the demos at least consider his voice.
I guess I could see some sense in your reply if you thought Palin was going to run for president in 2012. I just don’t see this as a realistic possibility.
Even if she became president, I would hope we would get away from the Obama philosophy that “I can get things done because you ‘owe’ me”.
