Republican Star Sarah Palin: the New Media Darling?

It seems so odd. Now that the shrieking Obamaphiles are regrouping in their expectation of having a seat at the table in their idol’s administration, Sarah Palin appears to have usurped Obama’s role as media darling. In any case, you can’t argue with her popularity.

In a piece titled Sarah Palin to star at Republican governors conference, AFP reports: “Since Democrat Barack Obama's historic White House victory on November 4, Palin has been a constant presence in the media, fielding nearly as many interviews in the last week as she granted during her entire run on the Republican presidential ticket.”

Here’s the deal:

“MIAMI (AFP) — Defeated Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin returns to the national stage here Wednesday for what could be the first stop of her 2012 presidential bid, with a starring role at a conference for Republican governors.

“The conservative Alaska governor's emergence on the national scene as John McCain's running mate has been seen by many Republicans as the redeeming feature of their failed presidential campaign, setting her up for many as a hope for the party's future.

“Palin is scheduled to deliver a speech on Thursday at the annual meeting of the Republican Governors Association on Looking Toward the Future. She will also hold a press conference and conduct several national television interviews.”
