Hockey Mom: Sarah Palin's Shot at Glory

When John McCain announced that his vice presidential running mate was Alaska governor Sarah Palin, the country responded with a resounding Who? That question was quickly answered through a series of interviews that revealed Sarah Palin as a political force capable of mustering a large and vocal following…despite lacking nearly every attribute required of our nation’s leaders: honesty, a respectable code of ethics, intelligence, savvy, and leadership experience. In former FBI agent and investigative journalist William Weyand Turner’s enlightening and sometimes frightening book Hockey Mom: Sarah Palin’s Shot at Glory, readers learn how one attractive and charismatic politician not only played the system but, despite blunder after blunder and a political history as short as it is disreputable, may very well become the next Republican candidate for President. What happens if Palin crosses her Bridge to Nowhere…and lands in the Oval Office?

1Another hollow attempt to smear one of America's great citizen politicians  Jan 26, 2010
By William
This book is yet another insubstantial and transparent "hit piece" pushing the premise that Sarah Palin is immoral, corrupt and dumb. The author attempts to support his arguments with examples drawn from Sarah Palin's "relationship" with the Alaskan Independence Party, and her suspected "deal" as mayor of Wasilla with the city's Sports Complex contractors. This "deal" by the way was touted by malicious far left-wing Alaska DNC bloggers and the Huffington Post as the "scandal" which led Sarah Palin to step down as Governor of Alaska (a scandal which, of course, never materialized as it was pure fiction).

It is curious that liberals can't reconcile their portrayal of Sarah Palin as both village idiot on one hand and Svengali of James Bond film evil genius calibre on the other.

If you belong to the Keith Olbermann wing of the Democrat Party, put on your tinfoil hat, and pay homage to Turner for "exposing" Sarah Palin. If you are an average American, celebrate Sarah Palin as the "real" deal, a proud American citizen-politician who held an 88% approval rating as Governor of Alaska before being driven from office by the Saul Alinsky thug techniques of the left, and of William Turner.

5Great Read  Nov 22, 2009
By B. Hamlin
Great read, a page turner. Surprising new information and insight. Well written. I've enjoyed other books by William Weyand Turner. Like his writing style. If you want in-depth background on Sarah Palin, I definitely recommend this book. It's short and a fast read.
