Always ahead of the others, prescient, prophetic, clairvoyant,... Some might say brilliant... Malott's Blog was talking-up Palin in early April. And now there is talk she may be McCain's VP choice.

Governor Sarah Palin - Rising Republican Star

Sarah Heath Palin (née Sarah Louise Heath, born February 11, 1964 in Sandpoint, Idaho) is the current Governor of Alaska.

Palin's husband, Todd, works on the North Slope and is a commercial fisherman. She also has four children: Bristol, Piper, Track, and Willow. They live in Wasilla, about 40 miles north of Anchorage.

Palin has been an athlete and a beauty queen. She was the point guard for the Wasilla High School Warriors when they won the state small school basketball championship in 1982.
In 1984, Palin competed in the Miss Alaska contest after being chosen Miss Wasilla that year. In the Wasilla contest, she played the flute and also won the title of Miss Congeniality.
Details of Palin's personal life have contributed to her political image. She eats moose burgers and rides snowmachines. She admits that, when marijuana was legal in the state, she used it; however, she didn't like it.

Palin is strongly pro-life and belongs to Feminists for Life. She opposes same-sex marriage, but has gay friends and has otherwise been receptive to gay and lesbian concerns about discrimination. While the previous administration did not implement same-sex benefits, Palin followed an Alaska Supreme Court order and signed them into law.

In July 2007, Palin was heralded in the media as being the most popular governor in the United States, with an approval rating often in the 90s. An August 2007 poll had her approval rating at 84%, with 5% disapproving.

And, she is the prettiest governor I've ever seen.

In this last picture she reminds me very much of John McCain's wife. She has been mentioned as a VP possibilty.
