I'm having a hard time deciding who to vote for this election (I'm considering writing-in Jimmy Carter, our last good president, since he only had one term and, thus, would be eligible, legally!).

Here are some of her extreme and myopic views:
1. No right to choose for a woman who has been brutually raped or impregnanted by her father or brother.
2. Allowing the p0lice to make a woman's insurance company pay for her rape kit.
3. Not really caring to learn anything about our political system, but wanting to lead the country and reform Washington a la Doris Day in a smart Dior outfit taking on the mean railroad in "It Happened to Jane."
4. Thinking that she knows how to deal with Russia (the cold war is over BTW) because some remote part of Russia is next to a remote part of the remotely situated Alaska.
5. Thinking that having a two or so day Eva Peron esq. "Rainbow Tour" in Manhattan qualifies her on foreign policy.
6. Thinking that the Amercian people are so stupid that they will believe unsupported innuendos designed to promote bigotry.
There are others, but these are, at the least, illustrative.
Also -- poor Carter. He is, I think, an honest and good man. I truly like his ideas and manner. He was, however, wholly ineffective as Pres. Maybe his post Presidential experience has made him rich in being effective.
In the end, Gov. Palin has made the obvious choice to place herself as a Washington outsider (which she is) who is coming to town to kick a$$ and take names. Sadly, she has offered no plan to do that. She and McCain instead rely on Gov. Palin's self-described "maverick" status. Note - it is up to her to provide the details

As an aside, Gov. Palin once again is myopic here because she is running with a total Wahington insider whose association with the Keating Five makes him the very definition of the type of reform she baselessly touts herself as wanting go against.
