Well, Sarah Palin has been all over the news recently doing interviews and pimping her new book, "Going Rogue." Naturally, the left has done everything they can to discredit her.
Of course, they don't challenge her on the issues because they have no basis for such a challenge. They go straight to their favorite tact, "the politics of personal destruction," and attempt to discredit her personally rather than ideologically.
Why do they fear her so?
Simple. Sarah Palin is intelligent, well-spoken, down-to-earth, firm in her beliefs, and....
wait for it....
Conservative!!!
You see, the libs have come to see themselves as the "owners" of women's issues. You know, equality in the workplace, the right to decide about their own bodies, the right to exist as an autonomous entity, etc. So here comes Sarah Palin, a working woman who chooses to be happily married, chooses to have children, chooses to find strength in family and faith AND chooses to succeed despite coming from the polar opposite side of the political spectrum as the libs (who believe its not POSSIBLE to succeed without THEM)! The fact is, they can't afford, literally AND figuratively, for her "template" to be seen as a viable alternative for women because it discredits THEIR contention that theirs is the only way for a woman to be seen as successful.
I've got to hand it to her; she's taking on all comers. Her interview on Oprah was one of the best I've seen, but you would fully expect "O" to toe the party line and do everything she could to pull the rug out from under her. Props to you, Oprah! You played it fair and Palin came across as honest, intelligent, well-spoken, and right on the issues.
What a shock since she IS those things!
Take note, libs! This is a conservative nation and Palin is the flag bearer for the conservative movement at the moment; attack at your own risk!
