YOu gotta be kidding me! I live in Alaska and she has things so turned upside down that any business person in this state who understands economics and diplomacy is in shock at what she has done up here. Her popularity lies with the folks who move here for the permanent fund check every year and now she is handing out $1200 checks to everyone. Socialistic. The only think she cares about is Sarah and her endless self promotion. The newspaper and main TV channel just cover up all her huge mistakes and only follow her to photos shoots...ribbon cuttings, Vogue magazine...it's endless. Meanwhile our Mayor in Anchorage and the Superintendent of Schools cannot get an audience with her in her office. All she is is an ex-beauty queen who is way out of her league. Do your homework people...the emperor has no clothes....she just does not know it yet---we can see through her facade. Sarah Palin for VP? YOu gotta be kidding me!

Thanks. If McCain does pick him, let's hope they have a BIG FLAME to light that dead wood! Maybe, just going up against Obama will be enough, but I certainly would not count on THAT...fighting Obama's "fire" while trying to keep your flame from going out??? david- Seems to me you made my case about Romney.

She is intelligent, articulate, attractive and young. She will win women voters, including the "dis-enfranchised" Clinton supporters. I am an independent, but Fiorino on the ticket would get my vote.

His "baggage", if you will, is his liberal tendancies (do we REALLY need another McCain on the ticket?) and of course, his religion, though I have no problem with that. No question, Romney would make a great President...and I was actually for him before McCain caught fire and won, but I just don't see him adding much...though he would clean the clock of whoever he faced in the debates.

Palin is a great force to balance out McCain. And considering we are one of the most naturally oil-rich nations on the planet(if the THE richest), someone from AK is definitely going to come in handy in the near future.

True. Huckabee is a liberal on foreign policy and trendy like BHO, Bloomberg is a left winger on all issues not economic. An opportunist too, and arrogant. Jindal, Crist, Palin and Mitt are best choices. I love Newt, sans his obsession with global warming. Most moderates who dont like him, know nothing about him. Most libs are insane so I dont count them. “If he picks Nanny Bloomberg, Hucksterbee, or the opportunist, Graham, I will have to do the unthinkable, vote for Ob…..er, Nader.”

He needs to get someone from the Midwest or the South. Steele and Watts are a built-in charge of copycat. No gray hair. No "moderate" like him. No Washington types. Romney is too liberal and too opportunistic. (On Laura Ingraham's show he was attacking tax increases under the mantra of the little guy -- instead of attacking the redistributionist philosophy head on). A catholic will help in PA and Ohio.It's gotta be Jindal. Obama needs a woman on the ticket and someone with governing experience outside of DC. Gov. Napolitano is perfect.
