Just curious, for she's popping up as McCain's running mate. I trust the national press a lot less than actual Alaskans.

But do you like her? Has she been a good governor?

Wow Alaska, gondrats! You are likely going to loose your governor, but for a good cause eh? Never saw that one coming. I've always wanted to visit your state, now another reason. Your governor is not bad looking!

Soccer mom to VP in a few years? Not bad and as they say, only in America! Good pick by McCain. and a surprising one at that.

Not too surprising. I've been saying all along that his smartest choice would be a woman to pick up those disillusioned Hillary supporters. Nice balance with the age, thing, too. Good luck to them, and congrats to you Alaskans.

The GOP just took away from themselves the "Obama has no experience" arguement.

Most of us really like her, myself included.

The husband and I were just discussing how ironic this is...the current VP (Cheney) is from Wyoming...where we just moved from...and now the VP candidate (Palin) is from Alaska...where we just moved to I need more coffee.

I would disagree. When it comes to executive experience, there's a world of difference between running a congressional office of a dozen people and running an entire state government.
