When Gov. Palin was plucked, seemingly out of nowhere, to join Sen. McCain’s ticket in 2008, I honestly believe she was one of many. Yes, she was a promising young conservative, with a track record and plenty of guts and grit — but I believe there are, and will be, others who fit that description.
The American Left did their level best to crucify her. But by walking through that hell and coming out the other side, she became stronger, wilier, more capable — as we are now just beginning to see. As such, she is no longer one of many. How many of us could have endured what she did, for so long, without losing the smile?
The Left made a conscious, deliberate effort to destroy her. They have no idea what a giant they have helped create.
