Sarah Palin: "White suburban women, well, most women in general, we're not stupid"


(Salon) During an interview with Newsmax on Friday, former GOP Alaska Gov. and House candidate Sarah Palin championed white suburban women in grocery stores as change makers during the midterm elections.

"Four days left until the election," host Eric Bolling said in the intro to the segment with Palin. "The left is on the ropes. They're scared, and they should be. The red wave is real, and it's coming."

Referencing a recent Wall Street Journal article citing data indicating that white women are swinging Republican more and more, Bolling asked Palin to weigh in with her views on the matter.

"It doesn't surprise me," Palin said. "White suburban women, they're the ones in the grocery stores. They're the ones out there making sure their kids are safe walking to school and getting home. And they see that the trajectory we are on in our country, it's not good, it's going down, and something has to change."

According to The Wall Street Journal article referenced by Bolling, Republican pollster Tony Fabrizio gathered data showing that "54% of white suburban women think the U.S. is already in a recession and 74% think the economy is headed in the wrong direction." ..........(more)

Unfortunately for Ms Palin, not all suburban white women are racists. In fact, most are smart enough to realize their suburban home life only exists because of the vibrant, diverse, urban city center. The city whose entertainment, dining, culture, festivals, and opportunities they enjoy. The city where many of them and/or their family members work. Some even have minority neighbors they and their family members socialize with and many earn more than they do!!

Suburban white women know how to shop the grocery sales with their bonus cards and/or have Costco/Sam's Club options. Filling up their vehicles to drive everywhere is more costly, but they sympathize with families torn apart in Ukraine. Fuel and consumer goods prices will eventually go down.

And white suburban also women enjoy having reproductive healthcare options for themselves and their precious white children.
