Ping?
************************
Thanks so much for the "ping", Sarge. That title was somewhat misleading- the article makes clear that her efforts were to reform her party- not turn on it.
Two quotes jumped out:
1. "One of the most offensive things,” Palin said, “was realizing why they thought I was [on the commission]. They thought I'd be a good soldier and try to climb the political ladder.”
Hopefully, she realizes that those Washingtonians and those Alfalfa's expect her to be the "good soldier" also--- and she'll distance herself. They are in fact the very enemies that she has to call out and defeat.
2. "Sometimes I haven't a clue...why I remain passionate about wanting to change the world through Alaskan politics.”
If she lives another 100 years, she'll never have another opportunity like the present to be the leader of an historic movement to bring down American socialism-- as Reagan toppled communism. She just as the seize the moment, and get on message.
It's all tall order--but the rewards are great.
Thanks again for the consideration, Sarge.
