Governor PALIN and CHANGE

SARA PALIN, the Lady from Alaska could cause real change. Read the bio of Governor Palin. There is not much to dislike for the ladies or gentleman. If John Wayne wore skirts it could be Governor Palin. Yes, a person that could bring some earth moving changes on the political scene.
The changes are probably not what you think. Not a new governor riding in on a white horse to bring down the corrupt workings of Washington. Although a little housekeeping, like the California Governor was elected to do, would go a long way in Washington. No, something that could have a more long term effect. Governor Sara Palin of Alaska could change the Democrat Party. Like hell you say. Yes I say. There is a strong possibility the good governor could tare away the hold that the Democrat Party seems to have on women voters..especially young women voters. As already mentioned her bio is impressive. A lady of true grit in the making. However, more important is the Democrat Party itself. The VP pick has more experience than Senator Obama. This has to sting just a little. Especially since Senator Clinton also had more experience than Senator Obama. Many women in the Democrat Party feel, with some justification, that the current, good old boys, did a number on Senator Clinton. These ladies have some pay back for Obama. If it was short term OK. But, these changes will probably be permanent because the ladies have learned the hard way there is more, wide open, political oppurnity in the Republican Party than the Democrat Party. And, if you have strong political values, in the current environment, it does not make much difference if you are a Democrat or Republican.

She is what this country has needed for the past several elections....someone willing to do the right thing without focus groups or polls or an unwillingness to stand up and say: "Yes, I did it, I did it because it was the right thing to do."
