Thread Name: What does Sarah Palin remind you of?
Subject: RE: What does Sarah Palin remind you of?
What you guys are not getting is that Palin is not being portrayed as a frontier woman, or calamity jane or whatever ... what she reminds me of is yes, as I mentioned ... the woman behind the checkout at the Target store ... the working mom, the single working mom, the mom who hasn't the perfect family with the pain in the ass teenage daughter, the working mom with the special needs kid, the working mom with the son serving over in Bagdhad, the wife of the working man, the woman who can take on the washington establishment. There is a hell of a lot of these people in the U.S.A. The ones who have been ignored by the elite governing faction ... the lawyers, the corporate chiefs.

Whether she is exactly this person is irrelevant ... but that is what she is coming across as to the voters, something the voters in the U.S. have never seen before .. right or wrong I'm not going to even try to argue that point ... but it is why she is currently steam rolling through Virginia today ... 20,000k people out to see her. I will not be surprised to see this continue right through to voting day ... I may be wrong, but right now it looks like it has grabbed this whole carny election process by surprise. You may all call her what you will, but she is a reality that some can't seem to grasp.

"Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?"
