Sarah Palin certainly gets hammered from the Left on a regular basis, often times because of their severe case of PDS. But this morning Dana Perino, former press secretary to George W. Bush, said that there seems to be a disconnect between Palin’s op-eds and her twitter and tv show, that it doesn’t sound like her in the op-ed vs the way she tweets and talks on the show. She’s not knocking Palin, but simply questioning whether this ‘authenticity disconnect’ that she sees will become a problem for Palin if she runs for President:
Sarah Palin has certainly put herself in the lime light an awful lot in the last two years, even to the point of over saturation. I will admit it is a bit harder for me to see the lady who camps with Kate Gosselin becoming President of the United States, but even so I don’t question her authenticity because I believe I know who she is and what she stands for in terms of America and its greatness. Whether or not that translates to everyone else remains to be seen and there is an awful lot of time between now and 2012, if she even decides to run.
