I'm trying to figure out why someone who didn't and doesn't plan to ever vote a Palin ticket would be wasting their educated time having this conversation in the first place. What is it to you what her future political aspirations may be?

She's being discussed as a serious candidate for 2012. All presidential candidates are interesting. (At least the ones for the major parties.) If it turns out she just wants to be governor and not pursue another presidential campaign, I'm sure people will lose interest.

It's fun??? I think a lot of people here forget what fun it is to poke at politicians.

Her family moved to Alaska from Idaho when she was really young. I think she was around 4. And, I believe you're correct, when she finally got her degree it was from a school in Idaho.

She's right. The 2008 Presidential election was more a rejection of Republicans than an endorsement of Hussein. Same thing happened with his dad in 1992.
Darn, a political girl who talks straight and has a nice butt.
So are you like every other guy and agreeing with her just cause she's hot..? This isn't a niteclub,this is our country at stake

While I will not rule out another political run for higher office in the future, my and Todd's focus right now is my state of Alaska and preparing for my daughter, Bristol and Levi's wedding and the birth of our first grandchild and taking care of Piper and Trig, and praying for a safe return of my son from Iraq. Again, I am grateful for the experience that the McCain campaign offered me and whatever comes out from anonymous staffers says much more about them and their integrity than mine. Thank you and God bless
I totally agree--this is the sort of press release a smart and savvy politician would send out. But instead of acting like an experienced politician, we see the actions of someone who behaves like she lost Miss America again.

Well, if you did maybe she'd give you some of that $150,000 wardrobe. There's gotta be a few pieces the lawyers didn't get, and hey--she's probably got a pair of discopants in there...

Well, as much as I'm ashamed to say this, I don't think I could fit into those size 6's.
