John:

Metaphorically speaking, aren't all politicians "whores" for their
constituents and possible voters?

Yes, and that was what I meant.

And as far as taking earmarks and gaining federal funding for Alaska,
sounds like she was effectively doing her job to the best of her
ability as any good governor would.

Yep.

The job description changes slightly when running for a national
office, as it THEN becomes part of their job description to restrict
the flow from that unlimited pork spigot to the states.
They essentially become "whores" of the constituents of the country as
a whole, not just their own state.

They might.
Palin's problem is that she's lying about her history. She ought to have
stated it just as you did.
That she is misleading people Bob. Her first instinct when there is an
unpleasant or contradictory truth to be told seems to be to lie.
