Excerpt:

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin thinks president-elect Barack Obama is a pretty "cool" guy and she can work with him, especially on alternative energy and energy independence issues crucial to her state.

Obama phoned Palin during the recently-concluded campaign and they had a pleasant conversation.

"He was cool, too," Palin told Greta Van Susteren as the governor prepared a Sunday meal in her lakefront kitchen. "He was, like, 'Good luck--but not that much luck.'"



I've never heard of the President-elect telephoning the opposing Vice Presidential candidate after the election.

Did W. Bush call Edwards or Lieberman? Did Clinton call Quayle or Kemp? &c.
