Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, the 2008 Vice Presidential nominee on John McCain’s GOP ticket, is confounding observers by her busy life and plans.
She has become a commentator on Fox News Channel, has now tried comedy on Jay Leno’s late night show, and is shopping, according to reports, for a reality TV show involving Alaska and the Palin family!
This is not the typical route for a person contemplating a possible run for the Presidency. It would seem, rather, that between these activities and her best selling memoir, that she is more interested in being a good capitalist and exploiting her fame, or lack of it, from her Vice Presidential run.
The question is whether Sarah Palin could utilize this unusual background and life plans in the present, and a year from now catapult herself into the Presidential race. If that does happen, which seems more unlikely every day, it will be the oddest route to the Presidential race ever seen!
