Now the fans are eagerly waiting at Richland’s Hastings bookstore, 26 hours before Palin is scheduled to visit noon Sunday, just to ensure that they get her to personally sign her best seller.
This is the biggest book selling event at the Hastings store in Richmond, and Palin is expected to sign as many books as possible between noon and 2:00 p.m.
Fans call Palin a true American
The fans have come all prepared, with blankets, heaters, and sleeping bags, to stay there throughout the night to not miss a chance to meet the woman, who they believe is a true American.
By Saturday night, some 250 fans had already gathered outside the store.
Debi Danielson, 54, was quoted by The Seattle Times as saying, “She stands for what we stand for, which is greatly lacking in Seattle.”
Another fan named Nancy Daniel claimed, “She's standing up for conservative values, for ending corruption."
“I just think that a lot of her values are great and what’s right is right and what’s wrong is wrong. She uses all the things that have happened in her life as examples and I think she’s a really great person to look up to for young women,” stated a fan named Kelsie Ramsey.
More on Palin’s memoir
“Going Rogue” portrays Palin’s life. The title of the book is a reference to the phrase that was used during the 2008 presidential elections. “Has Sarah Palin 'gone rogue'?" was the lead of an article that appeared in magazine Slate.
She is portrayed as breaking the stereotypes. As the Alaska governor, Palin in 2006 vetoed the bill that banned the extension of benefits to gay state employees and their partners because she thought it was unconstitutional.
If she has not frequently answered media criticism that came her way, it does not mean that she does not possess intellectual curiosity. She has also established her literary credentials by stating that she grew up reading books like "The Pearl," "Animal Farm" and "Jonathan Livingston Seagull".
In short, Palin has talked about her life in Alaska, meeting her lifelong love, the role of faith in her life, her decision to enter politics, criticism by national media, and refutation of claims made by McCain staffers.
Spell Check?
"New York, November 29 -- There seems to be no end to Sarah Palin’s fan following. “Going ROUGE-An American Life”, Palin’s memoir, has already registered half a million sales in the first five days, meaning 4000 copies sold per hour."
Might want to make sure you spell the name of the book right. Otherwise people might end up buying this: http://orbooks.com/
Hmmm, maybe I shouldn't have said anything . . . would probably be a better way to spend your money.
Palin model of civility despite vicious attacks from the left
Think about how she has responded/contained herself in response to the most vicious and vile attacks on her (porno movies made with doubles, calling her every name in the book, etc) and her children by the media (including the paroding of Trig)...just that alone commands respect and admiration.
Could Obama have taken this punishment and not retaliated back in much more severe manner? Just look at what his reaction was to Glenn Beck and Hannity on Fox..and these guys never attack him personally.
Palin fans are deluded
"She's standing up for conservative values, for ending corruption."
Haven't you been following the news idiots? Corruption IS a conservative value. And Palin was in the thick of it in AK.
The stupid -- it hurts.
The stupid -- it hurts.
"Going Rogue" is great!
The crowds in Rochester were great. Sarah is drawing good folks, that are finally beginning to realize that she shares their values and.... isn't afraid to 'Take a Stand!, to Stand up for America'.
Go Sarah.....
