Briefly an on-air reporter in California, Wallace started her political career working in California state politics.[1]

In 1999, she moved to Florida to serve as Governor Jeb Bush’s press secretary and then became the Communications Director for the Florida State Technology Office in 2000.[2] Wallace worked on the 2000 Florida election recount.[3]

Wallace is a political commentator regularly featured on television news programs.[6]

In February 2013, Wallace publicly supported legal recognition for same-sex marriage in an amicus brief submitted to the U.S. Supreme Court.[14]

White House novel series[edit]

She is the author of the 2010 novel Eighteen Acres (a reference to the 18 acres on which the White House complex sits),[15] a fictional narrative about three powerful women at the top of their careers – the first female U.S. President, her chief of staff and a White House correspondent. Wallace said, “It’s my best attempt at a story that I hope people will pick up and read and enjoy and maybe feel like they’re getting to see what it’s really like in the White House in this entirely fictional story.”[16]

Eighteen Acres received praise from several sources and across the political spectrum. The Washington Post book reviewer wrote: "To say that Nicolle Wallace's 'Eighteen Acres' is one of the best novels I've read about life in the White House may be faint praise -- there haven't been many good ones -- but her book is both an enjoyable read and a serious look at what high-level political pressures do to people."[17] USA Today said "Nicolle Wallace actually knows what she's talking about"[18] and The New York Times called the book "an engaging, easy read."[19] TV personalities such as George Stephanopoulos,[20] Rachel Maddow,[21] John King,[22] and Andrea Mitchell[23] also praised Eighteen Acres.

In September 2011, Wallace published the sequel to Eighteen Acres, It's Classified, about a fictional presidential campaign troubled by a mentally-ill vice presidential candidate.[24] Wallace said the premise was inspired by her experience as a Senior Adviser to the McCain/Palin campaign.[25]

Late in October, The American Spectator's The Prowler revealed:
"Former Mitt Romney presidential campaign staffers…
have been involved in spreading anti-Palin spin to reporters, seeking to diminish her standing after the election.
'Sarah Palin is a lightweight, she won't be the first, not even the third, person people will think of when it comes to 2012,'
says one former Romney aide…
'The only serious candidate ready to challenge to lead the Republican Party is Mitt Romney.
"Some former Romney aides were behind the recent leaks to media, including CNN, that Governor Sarah Palin was a 'diva' and was going off message intentionally."

---

The Palmetto Scoop reported: "One of the first stories to hit the national airwaves was
the claim of a major internal strife between close McCain aides and the folks handling his running mate Sarah Palin."
"I’m told by very good sources that this was indeed the case and that a rift had developed, but it was between Palin’s people and the staffers brought on from the failed presidential campaign of former Gov. Mitt Romney, not McCain aides."
"The sources said nearly 80 percent of Romney’s former staff was absorbed by McCain and these individuals were responsible for what amounts to a premeditated, last-minute sabotage of Palin."
… aides loyal to Romney inside the McCain campaign, said The Scoop, reportedly saw
that Palin would be a serious contender for the Republican nomination in 2012 or 2016, which made her a threat to another presidential quest by Romney.

"These staffers are now out trying to finish her off ….hoping it would ingratiate themselves with Mitt Romney."

---

"Who's the Palin Leaker from the McCain Campaign?
National Review Online The publication of a Vanity Fair profile of Sarah Palin
appears to have opened old wounds in the McCain campaign.
... the source of the “Diva” leak was Nicolle Wallace’s husband."

Mitt Romney Sends Leftover Pizza to Obama Chicago HQ
After spending the day in Chicago fundraising, Mitt Romney
sat down with small business owners at Gino's East,
a pizza joint famous for their deep-dish pizza.
In fact, Romney himself tweeted a photo of a
delivery boy heading out with the loot, writing,
"Great deep dish at @ginoseast.
Sending the extra slices to @barackobama and his Chicago HQ team."

Palin as a has-been. Joins Rush Limbaugh.

[IronJack]

Yet another article on how “irrelevant” or “unthreatening” or “laughable” Sarah Palin is. For someone so ostensibly marginal, she sure seems to keep the Left’s interest.

[hosepipe]

I personally, know several people that has known Sarah from when she was a little girl..

All say she was special, honest, very smart, hard working, and spiritual all her life..

and so is the rest of her family and Todds(husband) family as well..

If someone does not like Sarah.. “mark them”... some thing is WRONG with them..

[E. Pluribus Unum]

And yet Sarah Palin is still on Aliyah Frumin's mind, and I've never heard of Aliyah Frumin and likely never will again.

I am sure that I'll hear a lot more about Sarah, though.

Well now the landing page for the Lean Forward network is hailing HealthCare.gov as the "website [which] might just save your life." The teaser headline links to msnbc.com staffer Aliyah Frumin's gauzy treatment of President Obama's latest speech plugging his troubled health care overhaul

Two questions:

1) How did we end up with so many people that hate America and freedom?

2) How did all the haters of America and freedom get the "loud-mouth" advantage of the media bull-horns and microphones?

(Maybe the answer to the second question is the "silent majority", those that love America and freedom, are busy living it not sniveling, bitching, and moaning about it.)

[BenLurkin]

That poll needs some serious FReeping.

They shot themselves in the foot by providing two derogatory answers and only one favorable on.

Vote.

[FlingWingFlyer]

These creeps on the left from the Party Of Death love to write obituaries. They’ve been writing Limbaugh’s obituary every year for the past 20 years. LOL! Clowns!

[Resettozero]

Ya know, we really are exceedingly blessed to have had Sarah Palin on the national stage all this time. Ted Cruz may not have been elected without her and other Constitutional conservatives probably would not have been elected to important offices.

So...Who would be the national spokesperson for FReepers of like and similar mind if not for her?

And she still takes non-stop flak (and worse) on our behalf...even here on FR, the online home for Constitutional conservatism.

[svcw]

I am fascinated that every single day the MSM says Palin is washed up, no credibility, no brains, lazy, stupid......yet she has them panting like dogs so they won’t miss a single thing she says.
And the people who comment as just as funny “I don’t care about,”, yet know everything she does and says.

[fhayek]

MSNBC, therefore worthless.

[WilliamofCarmichael]

We're dealing with 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus radical, psycho spoiled brats and their ideological litters.

.. meaning that 24/7 they (MSM) lie about the target, trash the target, attempt to incite horrible acts of violence against the target -- and then innocently ponder why is the target not popular with the (low-information) public?

I say again (and again) "You now have two Americas."

The fault is ours. Abe will explain from "the other side."

You initiated a policy to tolerate the Marxist-Alinsky radicals and let them rant; not only has it not ceased but was constantly augmented by decades of infiltration and indoctrination. You now have two Americas. In my opinion, it will not cease until a crisis shall have been reached and passed. A house divided against itself cannot stand. I believe this government cannot endure, permanently, half statist and half free; I do not expect the house to fall; but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing, or all the other.

Crisis, which one and when?

[cloudmountain]

I personally believe that the USA isn't yet ready for a woman president.

It will NEVER, EVER, EVER,EVER, EVER,EVER, EVER,EVER, EVER,EVER, EVER,EVER, EVER,EVER, EVER,EVER, EVER,EVER, EVER be ready for Hitlery.

Republican possibilities? Anyone care to submit a name?

Cloud Mountain = very old conservative female Republican who would REALLY love to vote for some GOOD GOP candidates.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

It’s a far cry from Sept. 3, 2008

MSNBC, spare me your sanctimonious white-washing of history, when back then you and your cohorts ridiculed her more violently than even today.

[pacpam]

Sarah is the Phoenix Rising. She’s willing to beat the drums that scare everyone else.

[alloysteel]

Our Sarah has plunged? When did this happen?

Last I heard, Sarah the Mama Grizzly Bear was still out there, sowing land mines the liberals so obligingly keep stepping on, and so continue to cripple and damage themselves.

One of the more resounding success stories of American politics, Sarah continues to open up dialogue that few others dare to say aloud, though many, even those who spend their days condemning her, agree with what she says, but are so bound up with “not rocking the boat”, they cannot bring themselves to express support, as it may “impair” their standing in some nebulous “smart people” list.

Sarah says, the Current Occupant now squatting in the White Hut should be impeached. There are certainly enough grounds to proceed, even in the face of seemingly little appetite for such a draconian measure. But how much is too much?

Not possible, say the naysayers, but they are of little vision of what is GOOD for America, and of even less heart to do the necessary things to correct what is fast becoming a train wreck of epic proportions. In domestic tranquility, in economic policies, and in international relations, “inept” is still one of the kindest epithets that may be applied to the Current Occupant. “Incompetent” comes to mind, and the gravity of the situation continues to escalate, as well as a sneaking suspicion that no matter how badly executed, there is a very real malice intent behind all this fumbling and bumbling around.

Thank you, Sarah, for keeping the fires stoked. And for dragging the feet of those who need encouragement to the fire and thrusting their feet closely to the embers.

Laughing stock?

[BuffaloJack]

The DemocRATs fear Palin, so they demonize and trivialize her.
They have the same regard for the Swift Boat Vets.
Demonize and trivialize what you fear the most, It’s how liberals think and work.
