A Shout Out For Palin

The only loser to give a victory tour, for that reason I give props where props are due.  One shout out is for her redefining the word exclusive.  I must have missed something!  Palin has given 7 exclusive interviews in 6 days.  Somewhere the word has been redefined and I missed the memo.

The second prop is for the following:

Palin tried to downplay her celebrity (even after a week in which she was featured in interviews on NBC, FOX News and CNN). In her speech, she tried to change the focus from herself to the work that Republican governors must now do, including developing energy resources to health care reform.

Her appearance was the highly anticipated moment of the conference, coming a day after other emerging governors spoke about the direction of the Republican Party. Entering the political wilderness after its losses this month, the group that many consider its future met to talk about what went wrong, and what to do next.

She made sure stomped all over the egos of her fellow govs.  She spent more time in the past than looking to the future of the GOP.
