It goes without saying that, with the launch of her book Going Rogue, Sarah Palin has been a busy lady these past few weeks – the last couple of days in particular. Here’s a link rundown of recent interviews she’s done:
—- The big “Oprah” interview, which aired yesterday: The Daily Beast has video clips of what they call “Palin’s 7 Best Moments” during the interview. YouTube user “SomePoliticalClips” appears to have the full interview, in parts. I’ve not watched it but it’s gotten generally good reviews from most of the conserative bloggers I read. According to them, even Oprah didn’t do too badly. Some have complained a bit about how the interview wasn’t more “policy-centered” but hey – come on. It’s Oprah.
—– The Rush Limbaugh interview: Sarah was on Rush’s show earlier today talking about substantive domestic and foreign policy issues. Click here to listen to what she had to say.
—- Palin also sat down with ABC’s Barbara Walters. ABC is showing snippets througout the week on various news/talk programming but you can read the full interview – and watch video clips – here.
—– National Review’s Rich Lowry and Robert Costa interview Palin here (via C4P).
—- Last but not least, Red State’s Erick Erickson conducted an interview with Palin earlier today, which you can read here. Great to see her keeping in touch with the grassroots ![]()
In related news, today Palin’s Facebook page made it to the 1,000,000th follower mark. Congrats!
And about that sexist Newsweek cover of Sarah Palin, Michelle Malkin says it all. And a hat tip to several feminist liberal bloggers – and Media Matters, of all places, for agreeing that Newsweek has a “sexism” problem. I rarely give hat tips to liberal feminists or Media Matters, but today I have to give credit where it is due. On this one issue, Sarah Palin has united liberal feminists and conservatives. Who’da thought? ![]()

Got an email from Amazon today saying that my copy of Going Rogue shipped today and will arrive 11/23.
For some reason I also think of Barry Goldwater when I think of Sarah Palin. Like Palin, Goldwater was more of a libertarian than a conservative. Like Palin, Goldwater was a strong believer in freedom and personal responsibility. Like Palin, Goldwater was demonized by Democrats and their pets in the media. Like Palin, they sought to portray Goldwater as some sort of monster. Like Palin, Goldwater was undermined by “moderate” Republicans who preferred to lose in a landslide rather than see someone outside their circle win an election.
I don’t know if Palin will run for public office again (although I certainly hope so). But she, like Goldwater, may spark a revolution in American politics.
I like Sarah Palin, she’s the “real deal” in my admittedly biased view.
I voted (much!) more for her than McCain in the election…for all the good it did.
It’s about time “liberal” feminist bloggers acknowledged the sexism that motivates so many attacks on Palin. Now for that class problem.
Although I condemn this Newsweek cover, and probably the article, even tho, much like libs who are reviewing Sarah’s book, I must admit I haven’t read the article in question.
But I do have to admit, that I would rather look at pictures of Sarah than Hillary. It really is a no brainer. Not that I am trying to be sexist, but I am just a man.

I agree Lorica…she is surely in better shape than most of the “guys” in politics. Obama looks anorexic, even those in the MSM noted that.
I think Newsweak will have a black eye for a while over their subterfuge.
To Sarah, I wish her well. I know she must have learned a lot in a short time of how to handle the “press” and the paparazzi.
One thing about the paparazzi–you have to admire their dedication at getting the pics…too bad MSM doesn’t have the same kind of dedication to do real journalism.
