Well, I have not posted in a couple years. Being from Alaska and meeting Palin and living in Wasilla and voting for her to be the mayor there; years ago, and watching her as mayor I am now VERY excited about politics again. My husband died four years ago when I was a very active participant here made me change my priorities. I didn’t care anymore. NOW??? I can't contain my excitement. This woman is a mover and a shaker. She is a Barracuda, and she turned the economy of Wasilla around like a speeding bullet. Our property values doubled in a couple of years under her term as Mayor.

I'm pumped up about this election now. I just wish Palin was the top of the ticket. Maybe in a few years, huh!

” I am now VERY excited about politics again.”

Great to hear your input.
I had huge reservations about McCain being picked. But his campaign has been flawless. He has exploited every opening given by Obama, and I really like the what i hear about your Governor. Hope to hear more about her, and see her take office in January as VP.

Nice to have your first-hand insight and enthusiam again. I believe you used to frequent some threads I treaded on back when.

Some here have posted that she was not a dynamic speaker and campaigner.

I think her results speak for themselves. Goodness; two principled, consistent, hardworking leaders on the R side of the ticket, what a contrast.

As someone from her town, can you comment on how she might do on the campaign trail (or shall I say, ‘trial’) and the debates?

Ditto, ditto, ditto.

Here's hoping she has eight years to learn the ropes!
