I Still Don't Like McCain, But I'm Loving His VP Choice...

So get this. She runs for governor of Alaska. The Republicans don't like her cuz she's been ratting on the corrupt ones. She wins the primaries anyway and defeats the Democrat who outspends her. So she starts ratting on corrupt Alaskan Republicans in Washington. She fixes the budget, kills the "bridge to nowhere," shelves 300 pork-barrel projects, and says Alaska needs to be self-sufficient instead of relying on federal money. She replaces a whole board committee that wasn't doing their job right.

Romney wouldn't have excited me. I read up on Pawlenty when he was getting buzz and thougt he was ok. But an initial read up on the no-nonsense integrity of Palin has me more excited about anything political I've been in awhile. She hasn't even been governor for two years, but it's more of an executive record than McCain, Obama, and Biden combined, and it's an impressive one two.

You want a Washington outsider, Democrats? It doesn't get any farther than Alaska.
