The conservative Republican blogger in New York opines: "In her capacity as mayor, she cut personal property tax, the business
inventory tax, and the property tax mil[l] levy every year. As governor,
she yearly utilized her line-item veto power to cut spending by millions
of dollars, invested $5 billion in state savings, forward-funded
education, provided Alaskans a resource rebate to offset energy costs,
and opted to reject much of the proffered 'stimulus' funds. The upshot
of the Governor’s wise fiscal management included a business boom,
decreased unemployment, and an improved credit rating."
More commentary from Ms. Ross: "Putting her money where her mouth was, Governor Palin also denied
herself raises during her career. How often do we see this from our
politicians? Rather, they’re too often getting fat off of insider
trading, legal graft, and crony capitalism, as foreign policy adviser to
Governor Palin, Peter Schweizer, reveals in his book,
Throw Them All Out."
