The reason Sarah Palin’s supporters love her so much is because she’s Christian, she’s pro-life, she doesn’t go along with the good-old-boys network — Democrat or Republican, she comes out strong on fiscal responsibility, she speaks out plainly on what she really believes, she relates  to ordinary people in ways that we can understand and she’s genuine.

The reason Sarah Palin’s detractors hate her and are afraid of her is because she’s Christian, she’s pro-life, she doesn’t go along with the good-old-boys network — Democrat or Republican, she comes out strong on fiscal responsibility, she speaks out plainly on what she really believes, she relates to ordinary people in ways that we can understand and she’s genuine.

Sarah Palin is a rogue in that she’s not a part of the political herd. She can think for herself.
