Otherwise it is ALWAYS Governor Sarah Palin or Gov. Sarah Palin, or Gov. Palin.

That is the formally correct form.

However Sarah Palin is who she is as an individual. And "Sarah Palin" is pretty awesome, so I consider it an acceptable way of referencing to her.

But Mrs Palin (or Ms Palin) is an attempt to diminish her by giving her a title, but one which, although technically correct, is less exclusive than her actual achievement.

Right out is Joe the Hard-Coal Miner's "'Lieutenant Governor' Palin"

Also ‘out’ is “Mayor of Wasilla Sarah Palin”. When Senator 0bama said that I wanted the McCain/Palin ticket to call him “Illinois State Senator 0bama” until he corrected himself.
