The Politics of Sarah Palin


One woman has influenced the American politics in no way has any other politician or leader. Woman who is a dumb cow but knows her politics well enough. Sarah Palin disgraced the American political scene when John McCain appointed her vice-presidential nominee and her legacy began. Her first big achievement was getting Barack Obama elected by undermining the presidency of Mr. McCain. Her views on foreign policy on Russia, her failure to name one newspaper she reads or one Supreme Court decision she disputes highlighted her intellectual illness.

In the following years her clout increased ad she began with a sequence of book releases, reality shows and her lecture series. Her glamour and her idiotic sense amuses her followers and detractors alike. What she had gained through this charade is unparalleled popularity sending her TV appearance and lecture fees through the roof. She was the darling of the conservative Fox News crowd.

But then something new happened. Michelle Bachmann appeared on the scene and she was suddenly the darling of the conservatives. Ms. Bachmann though not as hot as Ms. Palin was certainly evenly charming and may be a zillion times knowledgeable than Palin – not a compliment to Bachmans wisdom , this is more of a rebuke at Ms Palins lack of it. Sarah Palin started to fade away. So Palin had to act and she did. Embarking upon bus tours, political forums and creating an uncertainity about her presidential bid. Buying a house in Arizona, meeting Trump or gathering campaign funds, Palins activity level is up and brought her back in favor. So why do all this when the woman herself knows and even Bill O Reily knows that she is the most unfit person on the face of the planet to pull something like the US presidency off. The woman is playing her politics for the benefit of her economics.

So why can Palin never become a president or will never really run for president? If she declares that she is running she has to undergo a lot of scrutiny and answer a lot of questions on social and economic issues – but who will take all the trouble in the world to read books, newspaper and think about current issues? Like all of us she too has a limited time in a day whish the woman spends on makeup, dressing up, selecting designer glasses, skirts and tops and getting her fair done. The woman has a huge wardrobe appetite and it needs a lot of money. Sarah Palin needs all the money she can get to keep up with her taste in fashion ans hence she will never deny that she will not run for president. Now on until she turns 70 every 4 years there is a presidential election she will take up this charade of looking like she is running only to keep her current and in flavor.

The biggest sufferers from this Sarah Palin politics are the republican candidates who get little attention in view of her political circus.
