I hope you are correct. She would not be the reliable leftist tool Murk is, despite my personal feelings.
She made a huge major mistake of agreeing to be McCain's VP. That's the obvious, but it did give her name recognition.
She is very strong on the second amendment. She stood up a couple of time against the gov't involving the pipeline and AK oil. It's been awhile, so I'd have to do some further research.
She may be a candidate worth considering and she's pretty conservative and as time has progressed, especially with the disaster before us, I think she's probably even more conservative. She's stood up to a lot of media ridicule and survived, I think she'd give the leftists a run for their money. She's older and wiser.
