During the Republican Governors Association meeting that was held Tuesday, November 11, GOP’s nominee for vice-president in this year’s elections Sarah Palin told the Republicans to oversee the new United States administration’s actions, in order to prevent the Democrats from taking dishonest measures.

At a session focusing on „Looking Towards the Future: The GOP in Transition,” Palin said that the Republican Party, which is currently in search for a makeover of their political directions, had become the minority party, urging though her fellow colleagues to help the GOP steer clear of coming to be the negative party.

Although Sarah Palin did not clearly mention president-elect of the U.S. Barack Obama, she was not able to restrain from alluding to him by criticizing his common practice of voting „present” the time he was an Illinois state lawmaker.

Moreover, when addressing the Republicans during the Tuesday meeting, the Alaska governor stated that it was vital for the GOP to make sure that new administration did not render the health care system to be taken over by the federal government, adding that Republicans had to be the ones to show the Democrats the right way when it came to health care taxes.

After Republican presidential nominee John McCain, along with running-mate Sarah Palin lost the elections on November 4 to Democrat Barack Obama, rumor had it that Palin would be running for president of the United States in the 2012 elections.

Nevertheless, when asked whether she was considering running for president, Palin said that the GOP’s priorities were the budget and the reforms for the following year, while her candidacy was not a main focus at that moment.
