Of course, but I think they'd like to rid themselves of the attention whores in chief
I knew this would turn into that but without demonizing them, can we at least accept the fact that they have made this state a major attention grabber (for better or worse)? You almost hear about Alaska as much as (or, at some times, even more so than) New York, California, Florida and Texas these days. It's pretty amazing. Again, not saying it is necessarily a positive but it's certainly noteworthy for such a small state that barely received attention before 2008 and that's not just thank to the Palin's.
