Sarahpalooza resurges

She writes a book and people flock to the store. See how infuriating this must make libs? Didn't Pelosi pen a publishing flop? Didn't Al Frankin run for office because his radio career tanked? And it seems Bill Maher made a movie once.
Sarah writes a book and pre-sale records break. Then she schedules her first signing at Barnes & Nobles and hundreds wait in the cold.



It was 4:55 when the first cheer went up.

“Sarah! Sarah! Sarah”

And that’s 4:55 this morning when the thermometer had dipped into the 30s. But the 500 or so people in line didn’t mind the sleepless night or the onset of winter.

“What she represents is what we’re standing in line for,” said Robin Case, 44, of Traverse City, who set up a chair and sleeping bag at 9 p.m. Tuesday to make sure she got the chance to meet Sarah Palin, former Alaska Governor and vice presidential candidate. “She’s real and she’s standing up for what we believe in.”

Palin was scheduled to begin her “Going Rogue” book tour at the Barnes & Noble Booksellers at the Woodland Mall in Kentwood.

By 7 a.m., the line had swelled to more than 1,500 people as Barnes & Noble wrapped orange wristbands around Palin fans’ wrists.


Then she goes on Oprah.



Here's the money quote of the article, besides the fact Sarah did Oprah's waning viewing numbers a solid:

Winfrey began the interview by asking Palin if she felt snubbed at not getting an invitation to appear on the show last year. Winfrey said she didn't have any candidates on her Chicago-based show during the campaign because of her support for President Barack Obama.

Palin said she didn't feel snubbed and told Winfrey, "No offense to you, but it wasn't the center of my universe."
Oprah is the sun. Got it?

Curtsy to Gateway Pundit
