Sarah Palin and John McCain

Getty
Born: Feb. 11, 1964 (age 44); Sandpoint, Idaho
Spouse: Todd Palin
Current Residence: Wasilla, Alaska
Religion: Christian (Assemblies of God)
College: University of Idaho
Credentials: Governor of Alaska 2006 - present

The Good
  • Incredibly popular, she won the governorship of Alaska without the support of the Republican party.
  • Resurrects John McCain's maverick image by being tough on Republicans such as Ted Stevens.
  • True fiscal conservative who has gone the extra mile in reducing spending.

The Bad
  • Staunchly conservative on social issues, her strict stance against abortion and gay marriage will rally the base, but could alienate moderate voters.
  • Untested on the national stage, this presidential race will be a trial by fire for the young governor.
  • The 'Troopergate' Scandal could end her career and drag McCain down with it.
