That's an excellence.<br /><br />Then she also writes a bestseller that ties with the only other monster political bestseller--Bill Clinton's autobiography. Also an excellence.<br /><br />Then she does reasonably well as a rookie stand up comic on the Tonight Show.<br /><br />Then she does reasonably well as a political commentator.<br /><br />Then she does reasonably well in hosting a TV special.<br /><br />I hear she also hunts, fishes and runs a business--along with having been one of the few governors in the nation who actually but substantial money in state savings during the good years of the second Bush term.<br /><br />She's a runner. Can play a good game of basketball. And on and on . . . .<br /><br />Palin is an amazing person as well as an amazing politician.T.

Gave it to a friend to read.<br /><br />I heartily recommend that those interested in understanding the phenomenon that is Sarah Palin take the time to read her book, "Going Rogue." You will, of course, be forced away from the two-dimensional representation of the woman that seems to be the view of the chattering class. She is an amazing woman. <br /><br />But, if you'd rather keep your snark clean, why bother, eh?<br />.OregonGuyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08096619871119860938noreply@blogger.com
