The entire content of this post could be moot if, as is usually the case, the Republicans lose yet another closely contested vote count. Why is it the Democrats always seem to gain votes in these? I guess though it doesn't matter, if the Democrats lose, the votes just get counted again, and again and again until the Democratic candidate wins.
Governor Sarah Palin continues to develop as a leader in the GOP. Some are talking about her as a potential replacement for convicted pork farmer Ted Stevens. They say the Senate would expose her nationally and set her up for a potential Presidential run of her own in 2012.
Why the hell would she want to do that? Why give up the kush job of the babe in charge of one large piece of real estate with excellent views to move to the perennial murder capital of the United States to hang out with the slime of society that represents our nationally elected officials?
Face it, being associated with governors like this guy, this guy or this guy seems like much better company than this circus of self-serving freaks!
As governor she is the chief executive and has direct decision making duties and accountability for her actions. As one of 100 Senators she would be a face in the crowd. Senators are looked down on more than the President!
If she truly is considering a run in 2012, she'd be better coming to the race as a governor. Barack Obama is the first senator to be directly elected to the office of President since JFK. (True, Ford was in Congress but his position immediately prior to President was Vice President. Hence he never ran for President while holding an office in the Congress). Most President's, and the more successful ones were Governors.
If Mrs. Palin goes to Washington, am afraid she'll become infected with the same disease that befalls many in that town: Self-servus porkitis.
