Mayor of Wasilla
I added the fact that Palin is the former mayor of Wasilla, Alaska to her initial introduction in this article. It is of note that she is running for governor, but if that were not true then she would still be notable as a politician as the former Wasilla mayor. Michaelh2001 07:10, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
NOT Governor yet
Pallin hasn't taken office yet. She shouldn't be listed as the 11th Governor. GoodDay 16:28, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
- Alaska governors take office on the first Monday in December of the year they are elected. Gov. Palin took office yesterday in Fairbanks (readers please note the datestamps of these comments). This was the first time since statehood an Alaska gubernatorial inauguration was held outside of Juneau, the state's capital. McGehee 17:45, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
Needs editing?
Governor Murkowski did appoint Palin to serve as a commissioner on the state's Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, which she served on during 2003-2004, but later resigned, in protest over her perceived "lack of ethics" by fellow Alaskan Republican leaders. This included the state party's chairman, Randy Ruedrich, a fellow commissioner, who was accused of doing work for the party on public time and providing a sensitive email to a lobbyist. She filed formal complaints against both Ruedrich and former state Attorney General Gregg Renkes, who was eventuallly found not guilty.
- Why did Republican leaders think SHE was unethical. The wikipedia article seems to say that Randy Ruedrich was unethical, not Gov. Palin.HumanThing 00:01, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
Can someone put a picture of this girl up? SHES SMOKIN!
picture
can someone please put up a picture of her?-Bentley4
- Well, we now have a picture of her playing high school basketball, so I suppose a normal picture isn't necessary.</sarcasm> Misplaced Pages in recent months has become probably the worst place on the internet to find pictures of living individuals. It's really completely ridiculous. john k 06:45, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
Relevant links
Here's a place to record links that might be useful in this article.
- "The Most Popular Governor: Alaska's Sarah Palin is the GOP's newest star", by Fred Barnes, The Weekly Standard, 16 July 2007
(“Palin is a conservative who only last month vetoed 13 percent of the state's proposed budget for capital projects. The cuts, the Anchorage Daily News said, ‘may be the biggest single-year line-item veto total in state history.’”) CWC 11:04, 1 October 2007 (UTC) - "The GOP's North Star" by Patrick Ruffini (a GOP activist/columnist/blogger, so not a WP:RS), Townhall.com, 29 September 2007
(“In a small state that generally votes Republican, the divide between Alaska's Republican elected officials could not be more clear. Palin was elected as a whistleblower, and routinely rails against the state's transactional Republican establishment.”) CWC 11:04, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
