Sarah Palin was the mayor of a town named Wasilla for 6 years before becoming the Governor, and then John McCain’s running mate. Thrusting her into the national spotlight brought a much needed boost of energy to the McCain campaign, and also served to put the small town of Wasilla on the map - or did it? Using Google Map’s Satellite view, Wasilla, AK is not pictured. In fact, it is blurred so badly that one would not be able to make out a moose from a mansion. What are you trying to hide Mrs. Palin?
