Palin Tanking

I am not a player of World of Warcraft but I was taught about an important strategy within WOW last year by a good friend.  It is called "Tanking". When a difficult target needs to be brought down,  one player on the team becomes the "tank"... they rush in and take all of the most violent attacks thus opening the way for the rest of the team to sweep in and secure the objective.

Perhaps, Sarah Palin is a "Tank" for the conservative leaning thoughts here in the USA.  She can take the shots in the press because she is popular, and real.  She has good skills, and draws attention from the most dangerous opponents to any modern conservative.. the media.

I'm just sayin... it could be happening. ;-) and the lady on the cover of that box, kind of looks like her ;-)
