Even the LA Times knows Palin is focusing on Alaska

I'm not a fan of the LA Times, but I thought their recent take on Palin was interesting. Palin detractors in Alaska keep repeating the worn-out line "she's not focused on Alaska and only cares about running for President in 2012," despite massive amounts of evidence to the contrary. The LA Times Top of the Ticket blog actually got this part right.

"Palin remains probably the biggest Republican name out there. Despite numerous invitations and interview requests in recent weeks, she's clearly made a decision to stay close to home for the legislative session and be seen to focus on the business of Alaska, where she faces an election next year."

The non-Palin parts of the article are cringe-worthy per usual of the LA Times, but I liked what they said about her.
