If there are any, my guess is that it will be a conservative Republican
elector voting for Palin instead of McCain for president. There could also
be a die-hard Hillary Clinton supporter among the Democratic electors who
would cast a token vote for Hillary instead of Obama.

I don't think either of those is likely, but I could easily be mistaken.

A vote for Ron Paul is more probable.

Do recall that a faithless elector in 1973 cast a vote for Dave Nolan
(Libertarian) rather than Nixon.
