This letter of mine was just published in the San Jose Mercury News today:
GOP pals falling for Palin's pitch
Our Republican friends are "smitten" with Sarah Palin. One might even call her a celebrity. My father-in-law giddily says "she's just great," and he buys the argument that she has more executive experience than the other three combined. Nils Sedwick (Letters, Sept.9) says he wants her as governor of California because "Alaska has no sales tax, no individual income tax, and gave each resident a $1,200 rebate last year."
It seems to me that Alaska is obviously not your typical state. They live off oil. Good for them, but maybe we'd be better off with a governor from a more "challenging" state like, say, Texas. Oh wait, we've tried that, haven't we?
