Sarah Palin is a brilliant pick as next VP of the US

1)several years on a small town council, small town mayor, then a few years governor of a state w/ a population smaller than most US cities.

or

2)several years in a state senate and a couple years as US Senator.[/quote]

I would rather have #1 than #2. But as you pointed out, Palin isn’t running for president, just vice president. While I’ll knock Obama’s propensity for padding his resume, it’s only because he’s running for president.

While I doubt that you would vote for McCain because of Palin (her positions are not liberal), if there is something to be enamored of her, it’s her willingness and ability to take on Republican corruption and fight it. I heard of her doing this a year ago (somebody put her forth as a vice president pick and was roundly hounded for it). I haven’t seen a lot of mention about that here.

On another note, good for you to call gandalf on his crap. I’ve seen gandalf attack others for perceived racial slights against Obama, and yet Palin inspires all sorts of sexist nonsense from him. Yikes.

She was before the bridge to nowhere before she was against it. Ted Stevens campaigned for her in 2006. Of course that has been scrubbed from her Wikipedia and Governor’s Website.

Yah, quite the corruption fighter.

I did not write that quote.
It was renterclint.
I asked in another post what people find compelling in her.
I have some negative feelings about her invocation of Ferraro and Clinton but I really am not as negative on her as that.

Please take care when attributing quotes to me.

However, I do find her to be a republican in the style of Goldwater (though weaker). That is a compliment from me.
