This piece provides insight into Palin's health care policies, and from the Alaskan perspective since it is from a newspaper in Anchorage. I found it interesting and relevant since it is written by those who are Governor Palin's constituents. It is very relevant, as voters are looking to understand more about Palin. However, there are no outside links or sources quoted in the piece; I don't doubt the veracity of the reporting -- the article reads like local news, like common facts that everyone in the area just knows about -- but there should still be sources and links to back up what they are saying.
