Sarah Palin gets 1,070+ invitations

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin this week will begin accepting and rejecting the more than 1,070 invitations she has received for paid speeches and political appearances since she resigned from office, aides said.

Twenty speakers’ bureaus made offers to represent her. She has signed with Washington Speakers Bureau, which represents everyone from George and Laura Bush to Bob Woodward and Katie Couric to Alan Greenspan, Colin Powell and Rudy Giuliani.

More than 950 requests for speeches have poured in for Palin, and over 120 candidates for office have asked her to appear, including folks running for Senate, House and state Legislature, aides said.

Palin will be doing both paid speeches, which are expected to go for six figures apiece, and unpaid speeches for political and charitable causes, including Christian organizations, groups that support families with special-needs children and military families.

Contrary to what the lefties, and the good ol' boy GOP would have us believe, it looks like Sarah Palin is very much wanted around the speaking circuit.  Go Sarah.

Spread my work ethic, not my wealth.

Forget change, bring back common sense.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

I think that Sarah has learned that she doesn't need to be governor of Alaska to be an effective politician or even an affluent one.

Like Colin Powell who ran to the speaking circuit following his "tour" under GWB, Sarah is running toward the sign of money.

One big difference between Colin and Sarah, though.

Sarah didn't sell out to the moonbat crowd.

Run, Sarah, Run!  :cheersmate:

She can spend the next two years growing a bigger grass roots base.

And further distancing herself from the way McCain used her.

That could be a grey matter.

Drive carefully out there.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
