Palin Motivates Mothers to Launch Their Own Political Campaigns
U S Army Veteran
her influence on other would-be politicians can by seen by the growing
number of women she has inspired to seek public office.
The 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate's conservative philosophies
and her folksy, hockey-mom approach to politics have galvanized other
mothers to launch political campaigns -- at all levels of government --
aimed at reducing big-government spending.
Even Palin's real-life family dramas -- like her teenage daughter's
pregnancy -- add to her appeal, her followers say.
Patricia Sullivan, a mother of four who is running in the Republican primary
to take on Democratic Rep. Alan Grayson in Florida's 8th Congressional
District, says Palin's authenticity and rejection of Washington elitism
inspired her to launch her own political run.
"She is real America," Sullivan said in an interview Wednesday with
FoxNews.com. "She's brought more recognition to the fact that moms can do it
all."
Patricia Sullivan is running in the Republican primary to take on Democratic
Rep. Alan Grayson for Florida's 8th Congressional District seat.
Lisbeth "Liz" Carter of Atlanta, Ga., is planning a run for the Republican
nomination to battle Democratic Rep. Hank Johnson for Georgia's 4th
Congressional District.
Denel Wardell is running for a state senator seat in Lauderdale County,
Alabama.
Sullivan announced early last month that she would seek to challenge
Grayson, whose first term in Congress has been marked by several
controversies, including calling a female adviser to Federal Reserve
chairman Ben Bernanke's a "K Street whore."
"I think that for a long time people see politicians as part of an elite
establishment, and our nation's at a crossroads where the American people
realize that the elite establishment has gotten us into a mess," Sullivan
said, sounding themes associated with Palin.
Lisbeth "Liz" Carter of Atlanta is planning a run for the Republican
nomination to battle Democratic Rep. Hank Johnson in Georgia's 4th
Congressional District. She said Palin possesses a quality that many career
politicians lack: common sense.
"Her views are simple and basic," said Carter, a 40-year-old mother and CEO
of a small consulting group that assists private companies in executive
recruitment. "She's a leader who inspired people to step up and say we've
had enough.
"She doesn't put herself up in an ivory tower and say 'I know what's best
for you,'" Carter said, adding that she thinks Palin was "mishandled" last
year by both the McCain campaign and the Republican National Committee.
"She was sort of put into a box, and her true spirit and her passion were
not allowed to really shine through," she said. "She wasn't just a pretty
picture standing next to John McCain."
Palin's post-campaign popularity has soared in recent weeks as she has
barnstormed the country on a whirlwind book promotion tour.
A Fox News poll conducted Nov. 17 to 18 found that 47 percent of respondents
are more likely to give Palin a favorable rating than they are House Speaker
Nancy Pelosi. And about six in 10 polled said the former Alaska governor has
been treated unfairly by the press.
Even Palin cites her simplistic approach toward government and her
down-to-earth demeanor as qualifications for public office.
"I have common sense and I have, I believe the values that are reflective of
so many other American values," she said in a recent interview with Fox
News' Bill O'Reilly. "I believe that what Americans are seeking is not the
elitism."
Denel Wardell, who is running for a state senator seat in Lauderdale County,
Ala., told FoxNews.com that Palin's views inspired her to seek office.
"My first obligation is to the people who elect me, not to the party I'm
running on. And Sarah Palin made her first obligation the American public,"
said Wardell, who has recently worked as a tea party organizer.
"She's not manufactured. She's one of us," she said.
But Sullivan and Carter face an uphill battle in challenging incumbents
whose name recognition and financial might make them tough opponents.
Grayson, who represents a swing district, has enjoyed a flood of monetary
support since assuming office in January. The self-proclaimed "Democrat
with guts" raked in $100,000 the day after he said on the House floor that
Republicans want sick patients to "die quickly." He has said his brazen
statements will likely help win him re-election.
Johnson has also garnered widespread attention in recent months. Referring
to South Carolina Rep. Joe Wilson's "You lie" outburst during President
Obama's address before Congress, the Georgia Democrat said in September that
people will be putting on "white hoods and white uniforms again and riding
through the countryside" if emerging racist attitudes are not rebuked.
Johnson, who was elected to Congress in 2006, serves on both the House Armed
Services and Judiciary committees.
