PALIN AND RED STATE FEMINISM

CJ - VIA HA:

... central to Palin’s red-state appeal is her earthy embrace of motherhood.

She differs from mainstream feminists in that her sexuality and fecundity are not in tension with her achievement and power.

If anything, they rise out of them.

Instead of holding her back, her five children embody her energy, competence, authority, and optimism.
