She is young enough, She is prolly conservative enough,she has executive experience, she will fight for oil drilling in Alaska, but would she do it with young children?
No. How about someone who is more like George Patton.
Didnt she just have a baby? and if so would she want to run?
Why not? I hear she’s somewhat conservative and a good executive & mother. Sounds like the anti-Hillary or anti-Pelosi.
Yes!
Sarah's answer remains to be seen, but I hope she knows when to move and when to stand and fight.
I have never been more ready for anything in my life than Saracuda as the VP candidate. What a breath of fresh air she is!
I still want Jindal.

No.
No.
If Sarah Palin does become McCain’s VP choice and with the Lt. Governor of Alaska, Sean Parnell, also presently running for the lone U.S. House seat, then who will really Govern Alaska?
Who's Sarah Palin? :)
By the FUD posted on FR recently you would think she is Ron Paul's stunt double. ;)
Tactics, Tactics to drive the enemy nuts.
Too many kids. The MSM would be all over her.
I’m not sure who McCain is going to pick but I’m fairly certain about who he isn’t going to pick. He isn’t going to pick any of the also rans. He isn’t going to pick Lieberman or someone who is more moderate than him. He isn’t going to pick Crist, Jindle, or that Palawennty guy. So who does that leave? It leaves him to pick someone who is believable as a replacement and Presidential candidate, he will pick a conservative that I’m sure of.
What I’d recommend is that he pick someone with unquestionable oratory skills. McCain needs someone who can make his message more coherent and focused and who can package it so that it doesn’t produce a gag reflex in conservatives. He should take up the banner of practical small government conservatism and take a message to the people that states that America’s best days are ahead because of the strength of its citizens not the size of its government.
McCain needs someone to run with him that will take away some of the contrarian edge. Someone that does not just fill the slot but also adds a bit of spice to the mix. Will he find that person?
As for Obama I’m fairly certain he is going to choose Bill Richardson. I may be wrong but I think he represents the best fit and contrast for Obama. Obama needs someone who takes off his ultra-liberal edge and has gravitas (don’t you just hate that word?). lol
She is capable...conservative...and electable..AND......will neutralize ANYONE Obama selects..
What more do we conservatives want?
Someone on another post said she was a lackluster speaker and campaigner. However, she is obviously someone to watch, with lots of time to develop. She captures the imagination of a country looking for leaders who are still outsiders.
I’m certain that the country could do much worse than someone like her.
Enviros hate her (She wears fur and thinks the polar bear ruling was bs)
“Palin points out that the population of polar bears has increased over the last thirty years, and that Alaska already has protections for the polar bear under the Marine Mammal Protection Act. She also fears that the new regulation could potentially stifle the development of Alaska’s vast oil and gas resources, which is a priority in her administration.”
Pro-life. Learned 4 months into pregnancy her unborn baby had down syndrome.
Took on corrupt pubs in Alaska.
May 2008 poll showed her approval ratings in the mid 80s, the highest of any elected official in American politics.
