Governor Palins cornerstone accomplishment is AGIA (Alaska Gasline Inducement Act). During the Palin administration, TransCanada and Exxon formed an alliance to build a natural gas pipeline from Alaska to the Lower 48. Under Governor Palins governance, the project was expanded and revised from what previous governors had proposed with an open policy process for the Alaskan people. More progress was made on this effort than in the previous 30 years. This is the largest private sector infrastructure project in North American history and helps put us on the path toenergy independence.

At the same time, she fulfilled her campaign promise to forward fund education, allowing districts greater flexibility and predictability in their planning.

Regarding Palin, the Beltway establishment and the mainstream media have taken their best shots. They have spent the past few years digging into every crevice of Palin's background and the worst they can come up with is a little family dysfunction that pretty much 100% of all citizens have to deal with at one time or another.
Despite the constant attacks, put-downs and slanders, Sarah is emerging from the smoke stronger than ever. As her campaign becomes official and starts picking up momentum, you will see the grass roots come out of the woodwork like they never have before.
There are millions upon millions of Americans who have pretty much stayed out of the political process. They have become cynical because all politicians are the same, just snake-oil salesmen who will say whatever they need to get elected and once in, it's the same old, same old.
As the article states, Sarah Palin is one of us. She comes from the working class and like most of us, has spent most of her life working for a living and paying bills. How many career politicians can really say that?
People have been waiting for somebody like her to run. If she runs, they will come out and vote for her. Just wait and see. There is a pretty good chance that she will sweep every primary and caucus.
If Sarah runs, we will have the most charismatic presidential candidate since Ronald Reagan. Now I'm not saying Sarah is as good as Reagan. But I can confidently say she's the best conservative candidate we've seen SINCE Reagan.
Get ready for a campaign of the likes that we have never seen before.
Fearless, confident, REAL.
