Oh my: Palin “Going Rogue” on November 17th

10 reasons why Palin’s book must be attacked by the Far Left:

1)The book is proof Sarah is not an IDIOT. Rational people know that celebrity autobiographers collaborate with a known writer but here’s how the collaboration usually works: the celebrity provides the information, facts, his/her ideas and a rough draft or outline of the book akin to how a homeowner wants his/her house to be built, designed and configured and the professional writer suggests certain ways and means that the book should be constructed as an architect would develop and present a proposed blueprint or master plan to the homeowner to see whether the it will pass his/her muster. If it does not, it’s back to the drawing board.

And with Palin’s book I am absolutely sure that she signed off on the crafting and content of the book by her collaborator Lynn Vincent, including what was included and what was omitted in the final draft.

The Obamatrons and drones in the Far Left may try to insinuate that Palin did not do any of the writing and the information and ideas are not hers. If they do, even the most Leftist pundit or died-in-the-wool elitist will have to run away from this premise.

2)Once Sarah Palin proves to America that she is not an IDIOT, she will gradually become more credible and thus her ideas may become more palatable to the American voter. This is what Obama and his war room fear. Certain voters will still think Sarah is an idiot but they most likely would have voted for Obama and the Democrats anyway, but there are millions of independent conservatives, moderate independents and Republicans with a decent, lucid brain that might will be willing to give Palin a “second look” after the book comes out and she does a book tour.

3)If the sales for her book go through the roof, first Sarah will become wealthier and less subject to efforts to make her bankrupt and secondly her book will be deemed a success that even the NY Times bestseller list will have a hard time not reviewing or ignoring.

4)In addition to #3 the more people buy the book the more Sarah’s ideas become disseminated throughout America and the more they become part and parcel of the American consciousness next year, especially leading up to the 2010 midterms.

5)Presently, with the book coming out on November 17th, the CV is that Palin’s ideas on healthcare as revealed in her book may interfere with the passage of pending healthcare legislation; the word is about Obama wants a vote on healthcare legislation around Thanksgiving (Nov 26)

6)”Going Rogue” may become the Bible of the American conservative movement and galvanize those on the fence or those normally apolitical to get off their duff and to fight Obama or vote the Congressional Democrats out of office in 2010.

7)With the book coming out so early Sarah will be able to use the book as a “passport” to do many speeches, to write opinions on various topics, to converse in MSM interviews about the ideas presented in the book and back to #2 make her appear intelligent and competent. IMHO, as I have stated several times, Palin’s main problem is LEGITIMACY, that apolitical voters and fence-sitters must eventually begin to see her as worthy for higher office or presidential timber.

8)And with the book coming out about a year before the 2010 midtterms Sarah will be able to use the book as a springboard to win voters for the GOP in the 2010 and raise money for herself and the party. Imagine if her book is an astronomical bestseller and then she takes the lower 48 by storm and positions herself as serious full-time campaigner who is willing to go toe-to-toe with Obama in the summer and fall 2010. The Obama war room considers this the “nightmare” scenario.

9)Palin’s book may dwarf any books that Romney or Huckabee have coming out within the next 6 months and give her an easier road to the GOP nomination in 2012.

10)And the strategy of calling Sarah crazy, erratic or extreme may not hold up to scrutiny if Sarah positions herself in the book as a libertarian conservative rather than a hardcore socon or a war hawk. With the book undermining the “idiot” meme or the “crazy” meme, Obama and the MSM IMHO may have a hard time landing any punches on Sarah. Like Reagan she smiles too much and treats criticism as water off a duck’s back.
