I was born in Juneau and still have family there. It is my belief that Sarah is on to bigger and better things. She is a smart lady. Rarely do politicians come along that truly “work” for the people and Sarah is one of them. I also think that she stepped aside to let the Lt. Gov. build a strong platform for the 2010 elections. Sarah will no doubt be President in 4 or 8 years and the left wing mob of jackals and loons cant do anything about it.

I believe that was after the convention, but I could be wrong. There's no denying that McCain was a bad candidate who ran a horrible campaign. But then the Republicans didn't have that much of a talent pool to draw from in 2008. Given recent events, it's going to be even smaller in 2012. The Mittster looks to be the last man standing.

Tiger Woods in golf. When he's in the hunt on Sunday, the other players are afraid of him, nomatter what they say.
