Careful gentleman, let us not make her a superstar, that is the game the media machine wants us to play. Sarah is enjoying this support because she is emblematic of the millions of strong Republican women who are the heart of the party, and the soul of this Nation. These women are the stars. I’ll bet you know some Baracudas of your own.

Your correct. Somehow making her out as a rock star or super star makes her superficial. It undermines her message which is all about integrity and reform.

You are so right on that point! Speaking for myself and many gals that I know(Yes, we're okay saying that to each other)We never thought we would see a conservative woman like her run. There ARE millions of Sara's across this great land and I think we're still in shock that FINALLY we have a voice.

“I’ll bet you know some Baracudas of your own.”

She is the validation that women like myself [and most of my friends] have been waiting for all of our lives.

We all had family/society ragging us because we were “not like normal women”.

We preferred worn-out jeans and t shirts to fancy dresses, pistols to Barbie dolls, riding horses to hanging out at the mall, shooting empty pop cans to painting our nails, bailing hay and cleaning barns to fancy dress affairs, didn’t care if our nails were “dirty”, short and ragged or if our hair was long, wild, unstyled and tangled by tree branches as we ran untamed through the wilderness. [be it literal or figurative]
All of us who were told to sit down and shut up when we questioned the status quo because it wasn’t “lady like” to protest the blatant BS we are handed daily.

She is a nexus for *all* the “women who run with wolves”.

She will become iconic.

Sarah is enjoying this support because she is very frank about her across the board socially conservative views and doesn’t parse it....just like Rush says...run as a social conservative, don’t run from it

This is not about gender except to those who like to make it about gender to suit her own ends.

We alpha males out here who have flocked to her of course note her beauty (gorgeous) and charisma but we like her for what she says and does.

Folks try to make this a validation of fembotism at their peril.
