wow this woman is a piece of work. NOT ONE BLACK OR HISPANIC PERSON in this ad. This had to be on purpose. How sick. SHE DOES NOT EMPOWER ME IN THE LEAST. In fact, she turns my stomach! Anyone who is “inspired” by this idiotic woman needs her head examined.

I don’t disagree with the momma-grizzly comment, I’ve often said myself that the most dangerous place to be is between a mother and her child. However, I don’t think Palin is inspiring, empowering, or even mildly intelligent. Just listen to the way she talks in the commercial. She doesn’t really seem to know what she’s saying.

Great ad; and Sarah is inspiring, empowering and intelligent.
She has a impressive record of accomplishments.
I consider myself a independent and I will perhaps vote for Sarah Palin ( if she decides to run)
The media have ( and is still trying) to destroy Sarah Palin , but she is still standing strong because she is a very smart and courageous woman.

We love Sarah! Dedicated, and getting attention for important issues. About the minority issue: would it be more PC to stage this with the proper percentages of all minorities? I teach my kids that what is important is character, not skin color. Liberals are so racist!

You know, as parents you can teach your children about values - which I would hope that all parents do - but you can not control how your children will turn out. You see it everyday, good parents who kids turn out bad and bad parents who kids turn out good. I don’t understand how liberals who are so “unjudgemental” about how other people live their lives are always the first to judge when someone who tries to teach their kids good values have a kid who instead falls off the chosen path and choses to do their own thing. Isn’t that somewhat off? I’m raising my children with good old fashion values and I hope and pray that they get to adulthood without making any mistakes that could affect their lives but you know what if they make mistakes, I will be there for them and help them however I can. I’m sure like all mothers, Sarah wasn’t happy when her daughter got pregant but she stood by her and that is what real families do. Don’t judge others so harshly because you never know when you might find yourself in a situation like that.

Conservatives never judge other people!

First off, I’m Matt, i’m 16, and i’m a liberal.
There are so many things wrong with this it’s not even funny. I get women want a role model to look up to and i’m all for women’s rights, but not Palin. She is an ultra conservative nut job. Now I don’t judge people very often, but when I do it’s usually the one or more of the following A) Uber Conservatives, B)Stupid People, C)People without tolerance. I have a problem with uber conservatives because they seem to be under the impression that the bible has a place in politics and it doesn’t you ever hear of something called separation of church and state? Everyone is entitled to their beliefs, but when you create a political party based around those beliefs and want to change the government to ad hear to those beliefs it’s like you are forcing people to believe what you believe and that is wrong. Also they seem to be under the impression that it is alright for them to tell others what to do with their own bodies what with abortion and gay marriage but that is a whole other argument. Also they are hypocritical you have a comment that Conservatives don’t judge people, but several comments up people are judging the liberals calling them racist and what not, but they’re not the issue hear you ultra conservatives are. The other people I judge are the stupid people. I have 0 tolerance for stupidity and 0 sympathy for people who were hurt by doing something stupid. The last people that I judge are people with out tolerance of other people aka the uber conservatives. I understand that there are extremes on both sides of the political parties and if Palin was a liberal all the liberals would be commenting not the conservatives. It bothers me so much that you people can’t let two people who love and respect each other marry because it was written in some useless old book about a 2,000 year old Jewish zombie that you communicate with telepathically.

I don’t find it empowering. Any intellectual person will empower themselves and not rely on external sources. I think the ad is just stating that women aren’t liking the undercurrent changes going on in this country and they’re standing up against it. I think that’s great! More power to them! The grizzly bear analogy is a true one.

The person who posted about race is just ridiculous though. Come on! Every single ad or public demonstration MUST be peppered with representatives from each and every ethnicity???!! Please! It seems that YOU are focused on ethnicity. Everyone is equal right? Women are women, right? So, quit pulling out the ‘race’ card ~ it’s SO OLD now.

Isn’t this just stealing from the “soccer mom” politic movement of the mid-1990’s? Not really original.
BTW - Bristol Palin stated in an interview that her mother, Sarah Palin never had the sex talk with her.
Sarah Palin, against standard medical advise, flies about 3200 miles over 8 hours of flight time from Alaska to Texas to attend a conference (when she could of sent her Lt Gov) when she was 7 1/2 months into a high risk pregnancy. Her water breaks. Instead of going immediately to the nearest hospital (premature labor, high risk pregnancy, over 40 mother) she decides to return to Alaska and then drive an additional 50 minutes to Wasilia’s hospital (not exactly the best neonatal unit in Alaska).
And if grizzly moms are so into protecting her children-how exacty did Sarah try to protect Trig’s very life? Or Bristol from making a a life altering mistake?
She IS a bad example.

I don’t see anything wrong with the Mama Grizzly comment, cause I think most moms are like that. I think what bothered me was the implication that only those who are mothers are smart enough to be concerned about the issues. The ad focused so much on being a mother and that being a mother gave these candidates some sort of unique perspective. And I don’t believe that’s so.
