I found one Palin policy I highly approve of
we should extend it nationally.

"Over the opposition of oil companies, Republican Gov. Sarah Palin and Alaska's Legislature last year approved a major increase in taxes on the oil industry — a step that has generated stunning new wealth for the state as oil prices soared."

2. One of the things she sided with Democrats on against Republicans in the state.
Rememeber she has a higher approval rating among Democrats in Alaska than she does Republicans. Or at least she did until her famous acceptance speech.. Now I don't know of any Democrats that voice approval of her.

3. I don't approve of Palin, but I do approve oil winfall profit tax
right now the rest of the country is subsidizing Alaska's winfall profit tax through higher prices.
