The Anchorage Daily News (
http://adn.com) broke the story today, June 27, 2008 of the Bloggers for Palin -- i.e., us. A short piece about the effort appeared on the front page in the "Newsreader" section. There was a short (200 words or so) story in the blog section, and so far it is the most-commented on piece in the blog section. I'll have links to the ADN and the blog section on my blogroll (I know, promises, promises, but I will). I hope we all keep up the aggressive (but friendly!) effort to sign up more bloggers for Sarah. She's worth it.
I wrote the following blog comment:
Sarah PalinAs one of the bloggers for Sarah Palin for the antional Republican ticket, I believe her candidacy makes sense to anyone who thinks about it. My own blog has had 10 pieces supporting her candidacy and explaining why she is such a compelling candidate. Sarah is a wife and mother of four, with a husband who has labored at a "real job" -- imaagine that. A hundred million-plus Americans will immediately identify with her when she comes onto the national scene. I'm a very experienced political activist, and I intend to spend 2,000-plus hours on this effort. I have a slogan for Gov. Sarah: "She is fresh, and everyone else is tired." She has always belonged to you Alaska, and with your help, she'll soon belong to all America. Join us.

Another short piece in the
ADN caught my attention. It went as follows:
>Indecent exposure. Fairbanks police were called to Coppet Street early Tuesday after someone reported seeing a man running down the street wearing only a thong. The man was not located, police records stated. My comment: I didn't even know John Edwards was in Fairbanks.
As an Alaska fan, I know a few things about Fairbanks. It's so high up in the latitude scale that the North Pole is within walking distance. It's so far off the beaten track that Bill Clinton doesn't even have a girlfriend there.
