Who is going to run against Sean Parnell in the 2010 Republican Primary?
Sarah Palin is one of the most charismatic the Alaskan Republican party has produced in quite a long while, and despite her divisiveness would have been a strong candidate for the Republicans to run again.
Sean Parnell... is not as charismatic as Palin, and he also seems to have the same lacking grasp on policy issues as the Governor. Candidate Palin would narrow the number of primary contendors, I can only imagin that Candidate Parnell would open the flood-gates.
My only question is who is it going to be? Palin has split the Republican party of Alaska and her detractors might see a defeat of Parnell as a symbolic victory against Palin.
Maybe it is a little early to be looking toward the 2010 primary... but I think the show is going to be a good one

As a former state senator, I think Parnell knows a bit about public policy, the purpose of the administration and the function of the legislature. I think he understands there is a deeper purpose to being Governor than ceremony.
ReplyDeleteEven in a legislative body as small as the Alaskan Senate, there are going to be leaders and they are going to be followers.
ReplyDeleteSean Parnell has never struck me as a leader. His primary debate with Don Young was laughable.
