I don't think so. By 2012, Sarah has "shown the way" for many, many conservatives that are in the wings strengthened and emboldened, now they know and they will step out. Thank God for Sarah's strong bed-rock faith, her courage DEMONSTRATED by how she lives her life, her commitment to family and country, God bless this woman!!
She is also (by example) teaching men how to lead as well, how to be stand-up men for what's right instead of mincing around afraid to say something that might offend some Leftist, Godless puke.
Sarah Palin is redefining manhood.
