If Obama is elected, he'll be the candidate in 2012, too. Hillary will,
as you say, remain in the Senate, probably advancing to Senate Majority
Leader, which would be terrific. I'd love to see that.
I'm hoping Palin is so mired in ethical problems, she'll remain stuck in
Alaska.
If we don't hear anything else I doubt the problems she had will have
any staying power at all. They pretty much disposed of trooper gate ,
she had the right to fire Monetary and since Wooden is still working
that is not going to be around much longer.
The travel evidence issues are trivial too. Someone will point out one
trip or two in that jet she sold would have cost more than all the
kiddie and per diem expenses combined. Bottom line is she was still a
lot cheaper to move around than her predecessor. That was always her
claim.
I bet she is still OK in Alaska and that is all it takes to be elected
senator
Why would she want to be demoted to Senator?
More leverage (see T. Stevens), a learning curve for 2012, Senator is
the stepping stone for the 21st C.
You need to go back to the woodshed. Being a Senator is a step DOWN
from being Governor, just as being a congressman is below the position
of senator.

Each state has a proportional number of congressmen, TWO senators, but
only ONE Governor. It's the most powerful positon you can hold in any
state.
I guess you think a tin pot governor that only some perverts had ever
heard of because she won a beauty contest 20 years ago is superior to
a guy who can knock out a request for a $400 million bridge to nowhere
or get pork payments for Alaskans at 10 times what any other state got
per capita?


Grasshopper,

The position of a governor is higher, but of course like anything,
it's worthless in unskilled hands.

wax on, wax off!


Sarah seems a natural as a judge on a show like American Idol. She's
almost cute without being pretty, she's ditzy, she says outrageous
things that are unintentionally funny and she has a wild and crazy family.

But she's not a narcissistic liar. That's a shame, huh Harry?
