Senator Palin?

"Do the words 'Senator Sarah Palin' excite you?" 
That's the opening line of a recent email by The Tea Party Leadership Fund, which is trying to draft the former Alaska governor and past Fox News commentator to run for the Senate in 2014. The fund argues Palin has a clear path to victory in part due to recent polling showing incumbent Sen. Mark Begich, a Democrat, with less than 50 percent of the vote. 
But, it being a draft, the group hasn't talked with Palin about whether or not she's interested. And Palin – whose PAC didn't respond to request for comment from Whispers – is believed to be currently residing in Arizona, not Alaska. The fund's Niger Innis says the interest of Tea Party members in a Palin run, however, is clear. 
"We didn't know that [the draft] was going to catch fire to the degree that it has. And what that tells us is that this is just the beginning," he says. "It's gone viral." 
But not all Tea Party groups are enthused about drafting Palin without first gauging her interest.

After her recent play with her (or her husband's) chaw, she keeps falling farther and farther down my respect ladder.

Even if she ran and got elected, who is to say that she would finish her term? Senate terms are 6 years, not four, and she had already left her for year term early.

I say run her. Let's see how popular she really is in her 'home' state of AK! If she wins, great. If she loses, bummer.
