Don’t let it be forgotten that Hillary Clinton used THREE ghost writers for her book: Maryanne Vollers, Ruby Shamir, and Alison Muscatine.
If Hillary needs 3, I think Sarah is more than entitled to have one.

Sarah has one personality, Hillary needed three to cover her three personalities and justify each one.

And that she was a working journalist, interesting thing for the media to leave out.

I guess reporter might be a better word than journalist for her, if there is a difference.

*And that she was a working journalist

The MSM want to make her sound like a ditz.
Gov. Palin acrually worked in the real world
unlike most of DC Pols.

Their gal Pelosi is the ditz.

I'm not sure if the link centering on the "genuine person" quote was yours or just by chance. But it's an interesting expression, encarta suggests 'candid: honest and open in relationships with others; a very genuine person'.

To me Sarah represents the epitome of genuine with the honest character of conservatism deeply ingrained.

No wonder she scares the libs.

I've had the pleasure in my short 50 some years to have known several women who were independently strong and uncompromising, while at the same time being dutifully merciful and compassionate. When a cause of good was found lacking in leadership these women I've known took control and became the leader without hesitation.

Here's hoping that Sarah's book makes her the unquestioned conservative front runner for deseating Obmama. Just to set the tone. If she runs and is the most conservative republican I'll be happy to do everything I can to make her the next president. My pleasure, Madame President!

Sarah Palin is the hope of our nation. She is a self made politician, had no silver Republican spoon in her mouth, her shadow never graced the vaunted halls of liberal ivy league academe. That is a HUGE plus.

She has the skills gleaned from her youth, of a frontier woman. She has common sense, reflects the values of our nation of steadfast patriotism, frugality of budgeting,compassion for the unborn, all the positive attributes of a Mother of our nation. She has faced corruption in her own state government and within the Alaskan Republican party and cleaned it up, and supported the defense of a Senate candidate who faced bogus prosecution designed specifically by democrat prosecutors to usurp the will of the electorate.

Sarah scares the left and also the whining RINOS who now call themselves Republicans. Anyone who looks at Sarah Palin as other than a gift of leadership and hope for a traduced nation has got to have moonbat syndrome plus.

You bet the Dems are afraid of Palin, and so are the patriarchs of the Republican party who want to keep bleeding the nation with pork piled bills for their relatives and patronage, while refusing to listen to their own constituents who cry " NO." These RINOS even refuse to secure the nation by enforcing current immigration and illegal alien laws.

The continuous campaign to dis-empower Palin through bogus ethics complaints, baseless negative commentary in the media , much of it of a personal nature, is a horrible exercise in the self destruction of a nation. When Palin is attacked, every ordinary , hard working , patriotic American is attacked. And we should take that attack on each of us as being VERY personal.

Sarah has a PAC, and I support it. If she had enough funding she could go on the attack herself against her crooked critics, and file ethics violations against Democrat attorneys who seek to use our system of justice to achieve political ends that they know they cannot achieve at the ballot box should Palin run her own presidential campaign. She could even hire an Anne Coulter as her manager and loose her on those who make these scurrilous attacks on her.

You bet the Dems are afraid of Palin. She is the bolt and the arrow that will pierce Obama to the heart, and bring the light to a nation now in the dark, suffering under the tyrannical ministrations of a nationalist socialist president and his apparatchik running dogs.

Go the Sarahs PAC and donate.No better action can assure the eventual destruction of Obama and his politics, and Sarah means to do just that. She has no use for he Republican elite, but she will become so powerful that they will have to address her as a genuine candidate for the office of president.She certainly has far more experience and patriotism that the current poseur who now occupies the office.Sarah Palin has the ability to oust Obama, and to undo all the damage he is now doing. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see THAT. Even the most iggied Dem nationalist socialist blivet sees THAT, and piddles in their sordid little cod piece in rabid,reactionary fear.Palin gives them all a serious case of the shakes, because as she lives and breathes,she represents the TRUE America, not the Utopian Socialist disaster which a generation of whackos have sought to ram down the throats of decent Americans.

And the RINOS see Palin's potential too, and stand in her way as ensconced good old boy bullies, but Sarah knows how to handle bullies, and has proven THAT time and again.

Clear the decks for Palin folks. She is on the move, get behind her by contributing to her PAC.

Short of heading to Washington with pitchforks, no more effective action can be taken to oust Obama and his circus of freaks.Donate and allow Palin to become a power house of American truth,light and decency.

The “so called” smartest people in the country have nearly distroyed the country. I want someone who loves our country and will run it with integrity. I agree, Sarah is the hope for our nation.

If Republicans want a realistic chance at getting back in power they need to cut Palin loose yesterday. She’s a losing proposition all the way around. As long as Republicans hold on to her as the “great white hope” Republicans are missing out on grooming better qualified and more electable candidates. That’s my opinion and I’m sticking to it.

Hmm... Seems like a swoop and poop!

Personally, the more people get upset with the government and how politicians are the same old uppity elites, the more appealing she becomes... Granted I was a fan from the start ;-)

LOL These things happen.

In many ways, I'm still deciding whether I see her as the leader that we really need or whether she's just another politician with an appealing outward persona. When Elizabeth Dole was gaining popularity in the late 90's, I remember writing somewhere that only time would tell whether she was going to be the American Margaret Thatcher or just a female Bob Dole. Unfortunately, she was mostly a female Bob Dole although she did stand against illegal immigration a bit at the end.

Eight months ago, my feeling was that Sarah Palin was barely qualified for the presidency but that "barely qualified" still put her above any of the other three candidates running. If the USA is a strong, free country in fifty years, historians will be amazed that the 2008 election produced three such poorly qualified candidates and Sarah Palin who may end up being a great leader or may end up being another flash in the pan. On a gut level, I like her. I also think that someone who inspires that much hatred from that many idiots has to have some good qualities. On the other hand, I'm not sure whether she's really that good a leader or whether she's not ready for anything beyond Alaska.

I agree that she's the most "real" person to gain national prominence in a long time. I don't know when was the last election where we had a presidential or vice-presidential candidate who was "one of us" just four years before the election. Maybe we've never had someone else running for one of the top two slots who was "one of us" just four years before the election.

Here's your chance to be more than a one-post wonder. Beyond the fact that she doesn't appear to be one of "the same old uppity elites," what makes you think she will be a great leader?
