Of course the ADN pines for the old days of just good ole’ boys stealing stuff fair and square. Odd is what Alaska was before Palin, but the ADN would never admit that in a million years.
I was thinking about that today, how Palin has finally connected Alaska to the lower 48.
Alaska seems more a part of us than it ever has, it does not seem so far away and remote, and unattainably exotic anymore, I bet she really helps tourism.
I left out that Palin has made Alaska appear modern, youthful. vigorous, and outdoorsy all at the same time, a place where soccer moms and teenagers drive SUVs and fit in with hunters and bears.
