No, it’s not Pawlenty. It’s not Romney or Lieberman either. It’s Sarah Palin, first-term gov of Alaska.
Palin is a social conservative, opposed to abortion, opposed to same-sex marriage, and pro-gun. Alaska loves her.
She ran for gov on a clean-up-government campaign, and doesn’t suffer fools or oil companies gladly.

Bill Clinton gave a speech tonight at the Democratic Convention that every Dem hoped for. He praised Obama. He said this man can lead us. He said many things Hillary could not say including that Obama is ready to lead America and restore America’s standing in the world.
He made a very strong […]

Who will be voted off the island? Hint: It won’t be Michael Phelps.

Which Hillary will we get? Sure she knows exactly what she should say, but will we see the perfectly dressed and coifed former Presidential candidate? Or will we see the Hillary that seems to have forgotten the number of her hairdresser, and the location of her hair spray and make-up mirror?
To be clear: her appearance […]
