Last night, Saturday Night Live opened their show with Tina Fey (Shocked? Me, to!) playing Sarah Palin next to a Hillary Clinton character. The video is here<\/a>…YouTube scrubbed all of the pirate copies. They had one good line about the differences in their political opinions with Hillary explaining how she believed that we could we reason with foreign power to get a satisfactory outcome to which the Palin character responds “And I can see Russia from my house”.<\/p>\n

But the main thrust of the skit was that Hillary had worked so hard to get where she is and Palin just swooped in and scooped up Hillary’s mantle. That Sarah Palin is no Hillary Clinton. I agree.<\/p>\n

Hillary Clinton got to where she is because she attached herself to an ambitious man, perhaps less ambitious than herself, perhaps she had to poke and prod Bill Clinton along, but Hillary Clinton would never had made it as far as she has without Bill Clinton.<\/p>\n

Sarah Palin, on the other hand, made it pretty much on her own. Her husband had no political connections, her parents didn’t either. Sarah Palin went from the PTA to the governorship largely on her own. She became a conservative force in this country in her first year as governor, again, on her own. I remember discussing her as a possible candidate for VP back in March – I think it was with TSO when he and I were at Winter Soldier during our lunch break.<\/p>\n

No one can point to any man that “empowered” her or mentored her to the position she’s reached in America. No, Sarah Palin is no Hillary Clinton. In fact she’s the complete opposite of Hillary Clinton. That’s probably what scares the Left so much – an ambitious woman making it without their help and their afirmative action programs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
