Sarah Palin- Politician turned publicity prowler

We all first met Sarah Palin on the campaign trail a few years ago. Being the first woman to become governor of Alaska as well as the first woman to be a vice-presidential nominee for the Republican Party are very impressive points on a resume, yet it seems recently that the only place I see her name is on entertainment websites or shows.

It seems like ever since 2008, Sarah has constantly been on the covers of People, US Weekly, etc., and no where to be found on any political news channels such as CNN, etc. Also because she revealed that her teen-daughter, Bristol, was pregnant during the 2008 presidential election, even Bristol is a star now. Presently Bristol is public advocate for sexual abstinence for unmarried teens, as well as a contestant on the prime time ABC show Dancing with the Stars. And America seems to be just as obsessed with her relationship between baby-daddy Levi Johnston as they were with Jamie Lynn Spears and Casey Aldridge.

Just this week a TLC show starring Sarah, plus the whole Palin family premiered. Sarah Palin's Alaska brought in a huge number of viewers. I find it interesting that they premiere a TV show at the same time that Bristol is still on another show. It seems like the whole Palin family can only get more famous from here- but I doubt they will be visiting the White House anytime soon.
