and in physical size it is larger than Texas and in mineral and energy resources more than all the lower 48âs grand total.
Also, consider the scale of issues facing a Gov. of Alaska, vs. a mere Senator from a tiny place like Deleware, especially in regards to:
Healthcare
Environment
Transportation
Labor
and the list goes on...
There is just no comparison, Gov. vs. Senator, state vs. state, no comparison whatsoever.
Don’t try to confuse the Dims with numbers. They don’t understand facts. They prefer strongly help opinions.
Everyone I’ve talked to thinks McCain/Palin is a slam dunk. People who weren’t going to vote, now plan to vote for McCain. They’re thrilled. One person isn’t, though...my Italian/American friend (dual citizenship), who thinks Euro/Italy all the time. She was just about speechless — although agreeing that Sarah is one in a million — so I filled in the blanks. Europe can’t defend itself, and here comes Russia to deny fuel to Germany and threaten Europe. What did she think that meant? No reply. Would Obama help Europe? No. Did she think America needed defending? No answer. I told her McCain would defend this country to his last breath, but even so, she said she’d never pull the lever for him.

Someone made the observation earlier that Alaska does have more people than Vermont, and I believe that Howard Dean was once thought of as the salvation of the Democrat Party.
People go on Alaskan Cruises. They don't go on Delaware Cruises.
Dear Al Gore,
I have become very interested in Alaska over the last few days.
It sounds like the kind of place we used to have here in the lower forty eight states before people were taught in grade school to hate America and to engage in self destructive behavior instead of learning to read and write.
It seems to be a place where regular people aren’t ridiculed and called names because they aren’t homosexuals or because they judge people by their character instead of their race and skin color.
You are probably wondering why I am telling you this.
The reason is that I would like to live in a place like that.
But I cannot stand cold weather - not even a little bit.
And by all accounts it gets very cold there.
It seems to me that if you stop campaigning against the earth warming up, people might stop trying to cool it down.
Then, Alaska might might get warm enough for me to move there.
Please give my suggestion your favorable consideration as I am getting on in age and will probably have to make a decision in the next few years.
Repectfully yours,
A Concerned Citizen
A Governor has to get results. They don’t hide in DC and do nothing.
The Double-Standard of the Self-Anointed strikes again.
Biden has been one of 535 lawmakers for the past 36 years, who seeks earmarks for his tiny state and to raise taxes on nearly every American to pay for them. He also works less than 100 days a year with a group that polls at 9-18% approval.

Delaware: Three counties dominated by chemical plants, ugly tract housing, and some nice beaches. Blink and you miss it.
