NRO Pundits Pick Palin for VP!

I can't believe I didn't find this sooner, because it is a big victory for our movement.

National Review Online recently asked a group of important bloggers, pundits, and other politicos to make predictions about the outcome of the 2008 election, and ten responses were published on Nov. 6. Of those ten, only five listed VP choices, and only four can be counted as serious (Boston talk show host/humorist Michael Graham wrote a hilarious comedy piece involving a five-way race in which one candidate was Michelle Obama).

So, of the four VP predictions that can be a taken seriously, TWO tagged Sarah Palin as the Republican VP nominee!

Professor John J. Pitney Jr. and blogger E.M. Zanotti both picked a Giuliani-Palin ticket. So, not only did Palin get mentioned for VP, she was the MOST mentioned candidate (The other two predictions were Giuliani-Fred Thompson and Romney-Huckabee).

Palin fans, take a bow...because I think it's safe to say that, at least as far as online chatter is concerned, Sarah Palin is now a first-tier candidate for the Vice Presidency!
