Sarah Palin's new ad a direct mama grizzly attack against pro-abort feminists

Sarah Palin PAC's 1st political ad, entitled "Mama Grizzlies," speaks directly to mothers, wooing their maternal instinct, a nature and focus group pro-abort feminists understandably find impossible to attract.

Furthermore, the ad has strong pro-life undertones, Palin's overdubbed verbiage having been lifted from a speech she gave at the Susan B. Anthony List's Celebration of Life event in May.

Palin is singlehandedly forcing the pro-life issue to the forefront of the 2010 election season. I've heard the Republican establishment is wavering on whether to spotlight the marked differences between the 2 parties and various candidates on abortion. More on that later. Even if it doesn't, Palin will.

Palin's idea to brand and target the pro-life feminist, heretofore untapped by politicos, is a stroke of genius. It is also an ideological game changer. According to Politico, July 8...

The video... also reflects how she has built a powerful platform in the Republican Party by doing things in her own unique way. Her lack of cross-over appeal may ultimately limit her political prospects, but at the moment she's already got more influence than almost any other politician on the national scene.

"She is speaking to other women like her - and there are a lot of them," said GOP strategist Alex Castellanos. "For years, people said the 1st female president would be a Republican. What if the most powerful political leader in the women's movement that has evolved is Sarah Palin?"

Palin recognizes the power she wields, and explained to Politico... "The tools I'll use, like this energetic video that showcases commonsense Constitutional conservative women, will highlight a significant movement in our nation as we advance ever closer to what will be historic 2010 elections" Palin....

The video "shows off her breezy, informal speaking style," said Donatelli. "The decision to reconnect with women and families is a good one."

Palin's support for female candidate isn't just smart politics for her, [GOPAC Chairman Frank] Donatelli added, but is "good for the GOP too."...

[L]ongtime Republican insider and fundraiser Fred Malek, a fan of Palin'sj... who is deeply involved in the Republican Governors Association pointed out that the GOP has "5 great conservative female candidates running for governor as Republicans, including one Hispanic American, and one Indian American" who have received support from Palin.

"I believe all will win," Malek wrote in an e-mail to Politico. "And Gov. Palin's encouragement will help make that happen."

Palin's decision to steer her energy toward electing Republican women has proven wise, said Republican operative Mary Matalin.

"There is "nothing so powerful as a mother in progeny protection mode," Matalin said....

"This isn't just another electoral cycle 'mom' constituency," Matalin said. "These moms are bringing their parents, husbands and children along."

And what's this? Pro-abort feminists are shifting a tad from mocking Palin to showing a little of the green-eyed monster? From Tennessee Guerilla Women, July 8:

It's just too d*** bad that the Dems don't have a liberal woman, with the star power of Sarah Palin, doing for women on the left what Sarah Palin does for women on the right.

The problem is that no liberal woman speaks to the average woman. The average American woman does not look like most liberal politicians. Sarah Palin has so much power because women identify with her.

HA! On the Tennessee Guerrilla Women....I remember when they showed up in the committee room for a hearing on abortion and they were wearing Taliban style dress.

Many black people hate Sarah Palin, and I don't know why. I've never heard her say anything racist.

shes a republican and alot of blacks tend to be democratic and think republicans are for the rich also they probably think she's uneducated

Ask them why they hate her? You will get no answer

I didn't want to vote Hilary Clinton into the presidency because I thought her motives were wrong (raving ambition, proving to her husband she could be a better president) although I had to admit that men in politics are frequently acting out of blind ambition too. Had I known how unamerican Obama would have turned out to be, I might have been more soft on Clinton. I gave my vote to McCain and Palin so that I wouldn't have Obama's pro-abortion blood on my hands. I have been laughed at and criticized for voting for her. I didn't think that she was ready for the vice-presidency yet, but I couldn't face myself in the mirror if I had even thought for a second of voting for Obama.

Now, I have to admit: Palin is smarter than I thought! And she has something that a lot of shrill feminists don't have: charm. Oh, yes, charm. That quality that can't be bought or sold, that quality that you either have or you don't. Feminazis can't stand if anyone has anything they don't, that's why they make fun of her looks, as if one can't be pretty and smart at the same time. Sarah Palin is winning my respect anew. I'll vote for Palin again, this time with even more enthusiasm!

I wish Saran would come to Canada, I'd work for her election. We need a "Deborah" to lead us into battle.

Posted by: Evon at July 9, 2010 1:40 PM


Ha! I loved that last quote of a liberal whining that they don't have someone like Palin. The truth is they wouldn't know what to do with her even if they did. For example, what is she going to do to promote abortion rights? Go stumping on the right of mama grizzlys to eat their young? ROTFL! Yeah, right ... that'll win the hearts and minds of the American people. Go for it, Dems!

Of course, the November election is ours to lose at this point. The RINOs / socialists infecting the GOP leadership need to be tossed out to the street. Anyone they convince to park their Big Tent in the middle of the road is going to get run over. We dare not let them have their way.

The Femi-Nazi's hate Palin because she embodies everything they don't want women to have: a big family, responsibility to care for a special needs kid, deep faith, a devoted husband, recreational hunting and gun ownership, common sense administration, kinship with other "momma grizzlies" and pride to BE a woman.

I'd vote her to be president any day!

Posted by: RSD at July 9, 2010 3:08 PM


Wow, they are kind of like POLAR BEAR grizzlies...all white!

What a manipulative load of horsepuckey..............

Thanks, $arah, you did it again.

Not surprised to see you here, DEO. Have you filled your quota of 100 anti-Palin comments at various blogs today?

"Many black people hate Sarah Palin, and I don't know why. I've never heard her say anything racist."

Posted by: phillymiss at July 9, 2010 12:06 PM

Me neither. Is it leftover from the "Obama can do no wrong attitude", perhaps? Blacks are only 4% (25,000 pop.) of Alaska. Perhaps blacks nationwide don't think she could relate to them??

A few years ago, this article was not very complimentary of her.
www.phillyimc.org/en/node/75216

Call me a snob but, personally, I'm getting tired of her exaggerated accent. (If she wants to make it nationally I think she should tone it down.) That may be part of her problem being widely accepted. (There are probably people in Britain who can't understand her brand of English.) I still think of Tina Fey every time I hear her talk so it's hard for me to take her seriously at times - although I like her and respect her enthusiasm. I'm not fond of the animal references all the time. Liberals who live in cities aren't going to relate very well to them.

You should read her book Going Rogue, it is amazing what she accomplished! When it came out the left had their fact-checkers all over it and they couldn't find anything dishonest in what she wrote. To even compare her with Obama is so insulting to her.

Snow White leads The Seven Dwarfs

The GOP will soon be known as the Party of Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs with Sarah "Snow White" Palin leading such GOP Dwarfs as Huckabee, Gingrich, Pawlenty, Thune, DeMint, Romney and Ron Paul. When Snow White leads, The Seven Dwarfs follow.

I can't believe you're all falling for Palin's bogus populism: the accent, the hunting, the trisomy son she hoisted in front of the bright lights at the RNC. Unlike the "average American woman," she has MONEY, by dint of her own efforts or not, which makes it considerably easier to raise a large family and parade them around the political circuit.

She's no more genuine than Obama, or any other politician.

Posted by: Megan at July 10, 2010 12:55 AM


It's always fun to see the women who could not do all the things Palin has done, exhibit the envy.

My recommendation is for Palin to continue in her own style to accomplish her political aims. Putting on a false face is just like any other lie.... it takes work to maintain the fiction.

At this time, Palin is more sympathetic to the pro-life movement than any other currently electable, national politician. She also has the ability to encourage people to do their best. For that reason, I support her.

Expect the women who use abortion to solve their personal problems to dislike a person who did not do that. Expect the feminists to hate Palin for proving that a woman could succeed in a career without killing her babies.

As for the money.......the Palins were not swimming in it until Sarah wrote her books. She's been quite generous to the pro-life organizations. The Alaska governor's salary was $125,000 per year, and it precluded accepting funds from any other source.

I don't have to know anything about the men running for sheriff in my county.

I just drive around my area to see who has what campaign sign in their yard.

This tells me everything I need to know.

Posted by: Praxedes at July 10, 2010 7:44 AM


Falling for??

Good one, Megan. So in terms of who you support you didn't "fall for" their stand on issues did you? No, you like what you heard, believed in what they said and I am sure voiced your opinion by voting for them.

I shall do the same.

Oh, and that little boy with Down Syndrome? His name is Trig and he is Sarah's son. I haven't seen a politician yet that hasn't "hoisted" their entire family on stage. Kind of like how Obama "hoisted" his girls right?


So, spill it, Megs. Is it pure hatred, or a disagreement with what she values??

Do you level the same criticism toward the Obamas? Before the election, Michelle was earning more than the average American woman. Did this give the Obamas unfair advantage over other candidates?

Posted by: Fed Up at July 10, 2010 8:51 AM


Megan,

So you don't think Obama's genuine either?
Bogus populism? Come again?

ymchoo @ 11:56,
I'm not sure if that's a knock on the GOP; it's a clever analogy nonetheless.

This ad is just more fear-mongering... Trying to convince moms that their kids are in danger... What is the momma grizzly defending her kids against exactly? Vote for the tea Party [moderator edit] or something bad might happen to your kids…. Only they can save our children…. Aren’t you guys tired of being afraid of EVERYTHING yet?

Posted by: Biggz at July 10, 2010 11:38 AM


"the trisomy son"

It only took 3 words to reveal the hatred and discrimination against those who aren't deemed "good enough".

Posted by: elliemae at July 10, 2010 5:40 PM


I love Sarah Palin and always have. It's about what she stands for and believes in, not how much money she has or what color she is. Geez, stop the class envy for a second, libs and focus on the issues.

Posted by: Allie at July 10, 2010 6:19 PM


Megan, I've got news for you, Trig isn't a "trisomy son," or a medical condition, he's an individual living with Down Syndrome.

Posted by: Rachael C. at July 10, 2010 11:09 PM


Good for her that she is willing to take a stand like few do.
