Sarah Palin: Going Rogue

As Sarah Palin travels the country wide promoting her book, "Going Rogue," one thing is certain. She's a very popular woman. Crowds are following her like the Pied Piper as she draws thousands at each booksigning. Her book was a best seller long before its release yesterday. And her popularity continues to grow among the masses, with a 47% approval rating in a poll taken today.
Ms. Palin made a wise decision by taking on the smaller market cities and avoiding the big cities. Because in the heart of America, they care about her. I'm not saying she is presidential material, but middle America cares about Sarah Palin and is eager to hear what she has to say.
Of course, in the state run media, they have a slanted view. MSNBC correspondent, Chris Matthews, immediately pointed out that she appeals only to white people, another clearly racist remark from this journalist, who continues to make one gaffe after another. This is the same journalist who said "what's wrong with an army major calling Al Qaida?"
As Sarah Palin makes her rounds of interviews, she is proving that women should be taken seriously in the political arena. She stands up for John McCain and sets the record straight about the running of his campaign.
Again, the media is squaring off against her. Newsweek is trying to demean her by stealing a cover from Runner's World magazine. They placed it on this week's issue and showed her on the cover in running shorts. It is totally sexist and they get away with it. It's offensive not only to her, but to all women. But where are the women's groups outrage? It seems that if you're a conservative woman, they say nothing. But let something be said against a liberal woman, and they're all over the place. NOW should be ashamed of themselves for not standing up for all women, no matter what their political leanings.
Why all the negative attention for Ms. Palin? For some reason, the left leaning biased media is afraid of her because she has the heart of America backing her. Whether she runs for political office or not, no one should have to put up with the attacks she's had to deal with, especially the demeaning of her family.
Good luck to Sarah Palin, who might just surprise everyone and crash through that glass ceiling that has so far kept women from the top job in the country. ~One Voice
