Dianna -

I really like former Gov. Palin. Truth be told, I would prefer that She were our President rather than the incumbent. She has, or seems to have, the one thing President Obama lacks - COMMON SENSE/FEEL.
President Obama’s Columbia and Harvard Degrees cut No Ice with me. Got the same Two degrees from Two Schools just below them in prestige on scolarship and paying my own way working multiple jobs - the kind you had to turn up for, on time & ready to go.
i am, therefore, more of a kindred spirit of Sarah Palin than Barack Obama -
AND - I am sure it was harder for Sarah/Girl than Me/Boy.

I believe it was former Senator Fred Thompson that correctly described the one thing Governor Palin brought to the campaign that no other candidate did — she could speak “Downhome”. Whatever her weaknesses in policy knowledge, she could connect to audiences in a manner akin to Presidents Reagan and Clinton.
