I don’t care about Lincoln. This is 2011. We have an incompetent idiot in the White House and we can’t afford another one. We need someone who has a record of actions, not just words. Someone who did, instead of going to. Someone who knows how to cut a budget. Someone who has dealt first hand with big oil and won. Someone who knows the energy industry like the back of her hand. Someone who has and will continue to fight corruption, in both parties. Someone who can put their record up against anyone else’s in the race.
There again, your “Big Nasty Oil” theory is all full of holes. (You happen to be talking ot one.)

Oh, and since you keep exaggerating Palin’s “qualifications” here are the facts about her actual Oilfield experience;
(SOURCE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Palin) [Governor Murkowski offered a number of other jobs to Palin, and in February 2003, she accepted an appointment to the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, which oversees Alaska's oil and gas fields for safety and efficiency.[68]
Although she had little background in the area, she said she wanted to learn more about the oil industry, and was named chair of the commission and ethics supervisor.[1][68][70]
By November 2003 she was filing non-public ethics complaints with the state attorney general and the governor against a fellow commission member, Randy Ruedrich, a former petroleum engineer and the current chair of the state Republican Party.[68]
He was forced to resign in November 2003.[68] Palin resigned in January 2004.]
10 months experience, is not what we call “Somebody who knows the Oil Industry like the back of their hand”.
But, nice try anyway. Happy exaggerating.........
