1. Oh, yes, there are movements.
If you go to ProgressiveAlaska here http://www.progressivealaska.blogspot.com/ , read his stuff, then go to the bloggers on the right-hand side -- The Mudflats, Just a Girl From Homer, and The Immoral Minority are my favorites -- you can get some idea of what's going on here in the Democratic/Progressive community.

Sarah alienated a lot of former Democratic allies in the legislature during the campaign, and she never was particularly popular with the Republican establishment, so she'll have her work cut out for her. She hasn't shown any humility so far that I've seen, and I think that's going to be a problem. We have some good Democratic legislators and we picked up some more seats in this election, so it could get pretty interesting.

I think if she proves incapable of doing her job, especially in this more difficult time with falling oil revenues (the fiscal foundation of our state economy), and if she can't reconcile her ethical lapses, she should be recalled.
