2. The expression
missed the boat comes to mind.

Wish he had pushed that out a year ago. Her audience that wants to be grifted will remain so. The rest have caught on and are done with her.

3. There was no shortage of books published in 2000 that skewered GW Bush.
He survived that just fine and went on to do his best to ruin the country.

We'll need more than a gossipy book to derail Palin.

5. george w. moron* had the depth and power of his family ties to everything
corrupt and governmental to protect that functioning halfwit*.

All failin quitter has is marginal intelligence and her expert grifting abilities.

While, I too believe that she won't get hurt much from this, it won't be because of her family and/or political connections that will save her.

It will be the right wing media aka faux news and the like to fawn all over her and give her a platform to shed some of her now patented crocodile tears for all her mouth breathing supporters to mop up and drink.

4. I like the comments on the article
as long as there are morons on this planet, there will be Sarah Palins to lead them

Uh Oh. Sarah isn't going to like that. What Sarah will say: "He must be part of the "lame stream" media out to get her and her family. He is a disgruntled employee that wants to destroy me. Blah Blah Blah................."

I can write this book.

Page one: Sarah is an an opportunist.

6. I have no doubt that any "tell all" book about her would be chilling.
My instincts screamed "dangerous to the tribe" and I immediately recoiled the first time I ever saw an image of her.

Exactly like they did the first time I ever saw an image of Bush.

14. This book should be pretty good.
It's co-written by The Mudflats' Jeanne Devon, who is an exceptional writer, as many of you know. They've been working on this for a couple of years. Here's her announcement at The Mudflats. http://www.themudflats.net/2011/04/19/blind-allegiance-to-sarah-palin-is-coming-preorder-now/



Well, Mudflatters, this day has been a long time coming, but I’m happy to say it’s now official. Blind Allegiance to Sarah Palin, the book by Palin insider Frank Bailey, award-winning author (and Mudflats contributor) Ken Morris, and yours truly (Jeanne Devon) will at last be a reality and is now available for pre-order at Amazon.com! Click HERE.

It’s been almost two years of ups and downs, reading tens of thousands of emails, writing, editing, and some unforeseen drama… but the end result is very much worth it. I couldn’t be happier at having had the opportunity to meet and work with two amazing men in this project. It is, I believe, an important work, and has not only laid bare some stark and heretofore unknown realities of life in Palin’s inner sanctum, but brought together an unlikely team from both sides of the aisle who worked with a singular focus to bring the story to light.
