Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) has drawn her first Democratic challenger in a potential reelection bid in 2010, a hurdle the former vice presidential nominee may need to clear before pursuing national ambitions.
Democrat Bob Poe, the former Alaska State Commissioner of Administration and former CEO of Anchorage Economic Development Corporation, said Wednesday he will announce tomorrow that he intends to seek the Democratic nomination for governor of Alaska.
Poe is viewed as a serious, viable candidate by state Democrats, though there are some other candidates that could derail Poe's bid to unseat Palin. Poe lacks statewide name recognition unlike a candidate such as Ethan Berkowitz, the Democrat who came close to defeating Rep. Don Young (R-Alaska) this past November.
It is expected, though, that Poe would run a centrist, pragmatic campaign as an alternative to Palin.

Sarah will have to really sex herself up now as there could be a new Govenor. Sarah will have to bring the family out again and show those Christian Family Values and give those interviews to reporters in Alaska in only a towell like she did for Fox News reporters. Can't make a call to Johm McCain he's not answering her calls. The RNC can't find another idiot to give a charge card for Palin Family free clothes. Uncle Ted Stevens has his own problem as he now has Harry Reid and Diane Feinstein campaigning for his pardon. Sarah might think about working for Fox News like Joe the Plummer or she could get big bucks on SNL playing her dumb self. Todd is drinking again. Bristol is so upset she might have another baby as right now she has two kids. Levi's Mother might sell her story if Sarah doesn't get her off this drug dealing charge. Levi is looking forward to joining the Professional Hocky Team per the deal to lie about Bristol during the campigan. Funny thing about those Alaskan folks with their betcha!
