lol, that's funny - I haven't really listened to her speak or what her politics are (aside from broad generalities) , but that was the type that ran across my mind when I skimmed the initial news articles and pictures.

Possibly because she looks and talks almost verbatim like a confirmed ESTJ lady here at work.

It would also be one thing McCain might find attractive about her as a running mate.

Obviously this is just a vague first impression, I haven't researched yet.

of the small handful of women i've seen in politics theyre all xxTJ types. i wonder if for the first few generations of women in high leadership positions only the "tough" extraverted thinking types were able to break through. perhaps paving the way for other types. i don't especially like the idea of "strong" types and "weak" types but at least in regards to politics i think there is still the idea that only the toughest or most hard nosed women can compete.

... or not, heh. any thoughts?

in politics we need decisive, reliable leaders. xxTJs make good models.

why? because he's an INTP?

Intuitively, she seems ENTJ to me.

FDG · 09-04-2008, 06:20 PM

ENFj for sure

Just an empirical observation, but Sarah Palin behaves very closely to my aunt, who is an ESTJ. She has a steady, cool under pressure demeanor, but will go to war if you question her abilities. Also a lot of energy, very action oriented, take charge kind of person.

I guessed ESFJ when I heard her speak the day she was introduced. There hasn't been anything I've heard since then that has changed my mind.

other than incredibly annoying, i'd peg her as an ESFJ or an ESTJ, leaning toward F though.

What type is Dick Cheney? She's him - with ta ta s.
