I LOVE SARAH PALIN/I HATE SARAH PALIN
By Ross Bernstein
From her unexpected emergence as John McCain's running mate to her infamous Katie Couric interview, Sarah Palin's presence in national politics has never been something people take with indifference or neutrality-she's either adamantly loved or viciously hated. Capturing both points of view in a dual flipbook, I Love Sarah Palin/I Hate Sarah Palin offers a tongue-in-cheek, retrospective look at why people love-and love to hate-Sarah Palin.
Compiling quotes from Palin-supporters, including radio personality Glenn Beck, former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani, former governor Mitt Romney and even reality TV star Heidi Montag, as well as quotes from Palin-haters such as TV host Conan O'Brien, New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd and political pundit James Carville, Ross Bernstein, author of I Love Brett Favre/I Hate Brett Favre, plays neutral narrator as he chronicles one of America's most fascinating and controversial pop culture figures. For every crack that John Stewart makes about Palin's claim to see Russia from her backyard-"When you think about it, Alaska is also near the North Pole, so she must also be friends with Santa"-a flip of the book reveals a quote of admiration from Rush Limbaugh-"She's enthusiastic, charismatic and infectious."
Beyond anecdotal quotes, I Love Sarah Palin/I Hate Sarah Palin is also a biographical snapshot of Palin's life story-starting form her youth in rural Alaska and then picking up speed in 2008 when she hit the national political scene and began her meteoric rise to fame. While Palin haters detest most things about her, they all seem to have one thing in common: they fear her. And while she may not be running for Commander in Chief any time soon, she still reigns as the ultimate "king-maker" for Republicans and Tea Partiers alike.
Featuring more than 100 politicians, political pundits, media personalities, celebrities, reality TV stars and notable bloggers from all political parties, I Love Sarah Palin/I Hate Sarah Palin chronicles the ever-lively commentary surrounding one of America's most prominent-and polarizing-political figures.
