The Grifter (attempts to) speak

Wow, when I first read this quote it was at Kos and I thought it was satire, perhaps someone channeling Garry Trudeau channeling Sarah. But no, it’s pure Sarah:

“Is a title worth it?” she asked, rhetorically. “Does a title shackle a person? Are they someone like me who’s maverick? I do go rogue and I call it like I see it and I don’t mind stirring it up in order to get people to think and debate aggressively.”

“Is a title and a campaign too shackle-y?,” she continued. “Does that prohibit me from being out there, out of a box, not allowing handlers to shape me and to force my message to be what donors or what contributors or what pundits want it to be? Does a title take away my freedom to call it like I see it and to affect positive change that we need in this country? That’s the biggest contemplation piece in my process.”

Maybe it’s some sort of meta thing: Sarah Palin imitating Tina Fey imitating Sarah Palin
