More 3rd party connections to Sarah Palin (She's A Former Pat Buchanan supporter)
PR has previously reported that Sarah Palin had been involved in various ways with the Alaska Libertarian Party from 2004-2006, culminating in an endorsement from that party for her 2006 gubanatorial campaign.

Well, that isn’t her only involvement in the third-party scene,apparently. Palin also recently sent a recorded video message to the Alaskan Independence Party at their 2008 convention, and it is rumored she attended at least one of them prior to being elected Governor.

suppose that a Democratic candidate selected a running-mate who had supported, and was supported by, a far-*left* candidate for the presidency?

Once that got into the MSM, the candidate would probably end up with a result that would make Mondale and McGovern look like landslide winners.
