No. Just No.

It's incredible to me, after watching the Katie Couric interviews of Sarah Palin, that anyone of any political persuasion could consider her even remotely qualified to be President. I don't understand how anyone could spend any time in politics, even local politics, be as ardently pro-life as she is, and not even realize that Roe v. Wade is completely dependent upon an inherent right to privacy in the constitution. I'm not even asking that she know that the right to privacy concept was actually laid out in Griswold v. Connecticut, or even what Griswold v. Connecticut is, but to claim that Roe v. Wade is a bad ruling while believing the constitution contains an inherent right to privacy is just strange.

Also strange is to say that you believe something ought to be left to the states, and call yourself a Federalist for believing that.  Alexander Hamilton would certainly be surprised.
