Palin's Private Photographer Has Seen It All

Political principals very rarely do that kind of thing for staffers, and it's not a gesture some might expect from Palin, who has a reputation of chewing through even loyal aides and advisers. But the less-than-a-handful of people in her current inner circle seem to genuinely like Palin as a person and enjoy being around her. This goes for Craighead, too, who talks about Palin much the same way that others who remain in her good graces do. "She's just the same in person as you see on TV. What you see is what you get," she says. "Off and on air, that person is still the same person."

When Craighead says that Palin has set no ground rules for what she can photograph, it's not unreasonable to imagine that Palin knew she didn't have to.

I note that the reporter made sure to start the article with slams against Palin.

People sense that about her. ...and it's the secret to her appeal. She's the genuine article.

You thought AOL News would be right-biased?

Palin also writes exactly like she talks. This gives her writing a very personal appeal because you can hear her words in her ‘voice’.

That her writing is so similar in style to her speaking indicates either that she (despite PDS protestations otherwise) IS writing her Facebooks and editorials; or she has one of the best spot on ghost writers out there who is absolutely inspired in ‘channeling’ the voice of Sarah Palin.

I think the former is far more likely than the latter.

But then again I apparently am a drooling star struck Palinbot!/s

What should we expect with such an insipid titilating sensationalistic headline?

Sounds like the lib chick who wrote this drivel is trying desparately for 15 minutes of fame with Keithie Olbermann or something similarly utterly weird and juvenile.

For example? ... and McCain's minions don't count.

The article is trash, but the photos are golden. I especially liked the one of the two little girls dressed up like their role model Sarah. Too cute for words.

The article also points to a book co-authored by Ms. Walshe. Just downloaded it to my Kindle app for $1.50.

So, who exactly has she suppsoedly “chewed through”? She has never had that many aides and advisors in the first place since she has always run a very lean operation. And second, she has absolutely NO record of abusing any of the people around her. Everyone who comes into contact with her walks alway feeling that she is the nicest woman on the planet.

That phrase did not “start the article.” It was buried in the middle. I’d like for this story to be widely read — paints a very favorable picture of Palin.
