Sarah: Come to Michigan!

Sarah Palin disagrees with the McCain campain regarding giving up on Michigan, and said she thinks she and Todd should come up here.

She talks not unlike a Yooper, and Michiganders (or Michiganians) would relate to this. What she would have to do is slip in a few references to "Up North." "Up North" is well-nigh sacred to many of us in the southern part of the state. We make our money, such as is still there to be made, here in southern or southeast Michigan. But then we like to spend some of it, when we can, "Up North," in God's Country.

What is Alaska, but "Up North" on steroids?

I think Sarah Palin could resonate in Michigan not only with native northern Michigan people, including "Yoopers," but also with us "trolls" (those who live "under the bridge"), because many of us hold the north country of Michigan to be nearly sacred.

By all means, come, Sarah, Warrior Goddess of the North.
