Todd Palin, the Shadow VP Pick

I guess behind every powerful woman Governor of Alaska there's a powerful man (emphasis mine):

Palin, cast at last week's Republican National Convention as a supportive husband, oil rig worker and championship snowmachine racer, has emerged in the days since as also a powerful figure in his wife's administration. Despite holding no government position, he attends official meetings and is copied on e-mails concerning state business.
