Call me a wishful thinker, but I had some small hopes for Palin. There was a lot to like including her down-to-earth manner, wit, small-government rhetoric, alleged links to Alaskan independence, defense of guns, and previous praise of Ron Paul.
Palin's comments yesterday on foreign policy, however, show her complete agreement with John McCain. The only difference is that she was relatively more candid than McCain in her hawkishness.
