Baby, If You Ever Wondered Whatever Became of Me: Sarah Palin To Do Radio?

Everyone wants to know where Sarah Palin will land next. Homemaker? Talk show host? We’d be happy just to be able to pinpoint her on twitter.

Now Inside Radio is speculating she may be testing the talk radio waters.

While not exactly shopping the GOP’s 2008 vice presidential candidate, sources say Palin representatives have been quietly testing the waters to see how much interest radio syndicators have for her. Sources say Palin hasn’t committed to radio either, but rather it could be a possible next step for her.

It’s certainly an option — talk radio is the stronghold of the right and would provide her with a built-in audience not to mention an easy platform with which to develop a 2012 campaign. But her best option? Palin may be famous for her way with words — some have even called it poetry! — but her, er, personal charisma has always been her strongest attribute. Something she clearly wouldn’t be able to put to use on the radio. That said, it could offer her a way to keep in the national conversation and still, mostly, fly under the constant scrutiny of the cablers. Plus, one imagines, just based on her Twitters, she could shortly take the entire medium to a whole new level bordering on performance art.
