Palin: You Betcha, I'm Running For Senate

This is pretty much a "hell's yeah."

I believe that I have — I feel I have a contract with Alaskans to serve. I’ve got two more years in my term. I’m going to serve Alaskans to the best of my ability. At this point it is as governor.

Now if something shifted dramatically and if it were, if it were acknowledged up there that I could be put to better use for my state in the U.S. Senate, I would certainly consider that, but that would take a special election and everything else. I am not one to appoint myself or a member of my family to take the place of any vacancy.

This surprised me -- I thought personal reasons (Bristol's marriage to an Alaskan, Todd's entire career being Alaska-based) would keep her from running.

Maybe she thinks she's has something to prove. And wants payback. That would be a nice attitude.

Via Hot Air, with video of Michelle Malkin slamming McCain for not responding to his staffers' leaks.

At this point, I have to guess it's not an oversight. I wanted to think the best of him, at least in terms of honorable behavior, but it's hard to grant him that benefit of the doubt any longer.

Who was the Diva again?
