The January 25 issue reads in huge text, “We’re Glad We Chose Life”.
Surprised? In Touch covers usually feature A-list celebrities so why is Sarah even on it? Is she a sell out?

DEO commented on Jan 19 10 at 2:56 pmTo be a genuine populist requires that Palin not only know the people’s common interests, but be better informed, more politically savvy and steadfast in the defense of core principles than they are. Successful populism requires enlightened elite leadership.
This is what Mrs. Palin lacks. It is one thing to be the mayor of Wasilla or the governor of Alaska; it is quite another to be the leader of a broad-based ideological movement. The problem with Mrs. Palin is not her views – and certainly not her middle-American background. Instead, it is her incompetence and poor judgment.
She is a product of our narcissistic celebrity culture. Instead of doing the heavy (and unglamorous) political lifting required of a national leader, she is embracing the luxurious life of a TV talking head. She has abandoned the very basis of her populist legitimacy: her outsider status.
For all her sound and fury – and at a moment of American crisis – Mrs. Palin has fatally chosen a conventional and lackluster path: to become an integral part of the media class. Her mystique will evaporate as she becomes overexposed and too familiar to be enchanting. Rather than going rogue, she has gone establishment.
