Here is to raising the tenor of the debate!

However, if you have not seen the similarities in devotion between Governor Palin followers, and followers of the President, I am honestly not sure if you have been paying attention

The thing Governor Palin has is that she is, well, a governor, and on the surface seems to support conservative causes

I personally like someone who has been doing it for a very long time, in Washington DC and his home state, and that is Governor Sanford, who has walked the walk since 1994

I have been following politics or involved in it for over 45 years.
I worked for Reagan when he first ran for Gov.

Get a clue. Sanford looks and talks like a funeral director. He will never draw crowds over 100 outside his state.

He sided up with anti war L Ron Paul early on.

You have no real history and background in American Politics. Sanford is a rich mans son with no reality in the real world

I, on the other hand, like those who come from the privatr sector, serve in office, and then return to the private sector instead of spending their entire carreer sucking at the public tit as a professional politician.

Inevitably they become corrupted old-boy-network scumbags.

Has Sanford ever bucked his own party? Put members of his own party in jail for corruption? Stood up to and overcome the cronyism between members of his own party and Big Oil? Because if he hasn't, he can't even carry Palin's water.

Palin has done all of the above and tons more. The last thing we need is just another entrenched GOP party hack.
