Yep, she belongs in George Bush's and John McCain's party! Chalk it up with McCain getting his wife off of drug charges that would've sent most people (even most rich white people) to jail for twenty years. (I won't bother listing all of Bush's.)
I look forward to seeing indictments handed down against her, preferably during the campaign. That'd make her even more of a match for two other Alaskan Republicans, soon-to-be-indicted Rep. Don Young, and already-indicted Sen. Ted Stevens.
I'd been sort of hoping McCain would pick Bobby Jindal, of Louisiana, who seems to be in the Huckabee wing of the party -- kinda crazy about social/religious issues, but authentically interested in serving the public good (though disrespect for science and fact-gathering can make that difficult, and the whacked-out patriarchalism tends to mean that their idea of the public good isn't so great for women, GLBT, etc). He just happens to be extra crazy on religion -- he used to conduct amateur exorcisms in his spare time.
