McCain's running mate Ms. Palin was born in Idaho and raised in Alaska. In 1984, she was the runner-up in the Miss Alaska pageant, receiving a scholarship that allowed her to attend the University of Idaho, where she received a degree in journalism.After working as a sports reporter at an Anchorage television station, Palin served two terms on the Wasilla, Alaska, City Council from 1992 to 1996, was elected mayor of Wasilla (population 5,470 in 2000) in 1996, and ran unsuccessfully for Lieutenant Governor in 2002.
LOVE IT!
Palin was elected Governor of Alaska in 2006 on the theme of governmental reform, defeating incumbent governor Frank Murkowski in the Republican primary and former Democratic Alaskan governor Tony Knowles in the general election. She gained attention for publicizing ethical violations by state Republican Party leaders
THIS WILL BE THE MOST FUN PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION EVER!

I expected some Dems to being degrading Palin right out of the gate, but am stunned at how stupid the negative buzz is on her:
1. Insisting on referring to her as a beauty queen in a dismissive tone. As if that is all she's done in her life. Good grief.
2. Hanging on her lack of national political experience. She has executive experience, real world business experience and a list of serious achievements accomplished in her two years as Governor. Her resume is three miles longer than Obamas.
3. Dismissing her as a token woman. And I think it is WOMEN dismissing her as a token woman!
4. Some comments about how she should be home with her infant instead of off doing a job. That from Democrat/feminists. Truly Baffling.
Palin is bringing out the unsavory double standards in liberals. The kneejerk hatred of anything Republican is apparently a dominant disability.
