If that is true then how did go up against two highly experienced seasoned governors (one a former by the name of Frank Murkowski, the other incumbent Toney Knowles) and debate them 3 times on issues such as oil and gas, fiscal reforms, taxation, budgets, education reform, healthcare, the seafood and timber industry and beat them both to become governor of Alaska? Answer that? All you are doing is spouting off liberal talking points and nonsense that was fed to you by the liberal MSM.
You sure do seem to know every moment of her life and career. Are you employed by her?
McCain was a total dumb a$$ for picking a clueless airhead for a running mate.
No he wasn't. What was a dumb a$$ move by McCain was listening to his nitwit campaign manager and decided to suspend his campaign and try to cancel the presidential debate in order to go to DC and deal with the TARP bailout. That was a foolish move that left republicans in shock. Palin raised a objection to the move and thought it was a political mistake for him to do so. She was overruled. Obama and the media took advantage of the blunder and labeled him a Washington insider who was part of the nations crisis and it worked. McCain had a lead over Obama after chose he Palin but by suspending his campaign, that was his downfall.
If you're saying that McCain has bad judgment when it comes to picking people, you're getting no argument from me.
Seems like a common problem in DC. How else to you explain clueless tools like Holder, Morton, Napalitano and Cebelias (sp? on all)? Bad judgement on selecting people is far from limited to Rs. Thing is, when you surround yourself with incompetant fools, you make yourself look like one. Just as true for Obama as McCain. Joe Biden anyone?

Yes, there is always the Sarah Palin the Savior of the GOP angle.
That won't help her in 2016 if Republican voters hate her. What choices will we have? a) vote for Hillary? b) stay home? c) vote for Sarah anyway? There is no one good option there.

She's not going to get the nomination and probably won't even run.
She's about the opposite of "Savior of the GOP." I think she is partially responsible for the beginning of the fractured mess that the GOP is in today.
What made Obama ready? He had zero executive experience at running a business, dealing with budgets or governing compared to Palin who had.
I'll agree with you on that point. Almost as soon as he was sworn in as Senator, Obama was making appearances in Iowa to gather momentum for a run for the Presidency. As an Illinois resident, that was like being stabbed in the back (even though I voted for Keyes). Couldn't he complete one term or a couple of terms first before making the next jump? Wags were quietly wondering if he was going to leave the Presidency mid-term to run for God which I thought was laugh-out-loud funny.

I agree with all three points. She may be a dim bulb but she certainly IS polarizing. That's the last thing the GOP needs in 2016.

My point exactly. I liked Keyes and he was far more experienced than Obama.
