"I am baffled by this book. The amount of emails in this book from this woman is mind boggling. The accusations of poll fixing, unethical decisions in office and the complete lack of morale in this woman has me completely disgusted by her and her husband. If this woman runs for President I will find a way to strongly help to campaign against her. She makes me fearful for the future of the conservative movement and America."

    " Unlike "Going Rogue" Mr. Bailey actually backs up his story with numerous emails detailing what a clown this woman is. Fascinating how in over her head and manipulative this woman is. "

    " Actually a better read than expected. If even half that was said in this was true, and to be honest, on the evidence, it seems more likely, we'll, USA dodged a major bullet - but the cult of personality established means a dangerous, self unaware, ego driven influence has been unleashed. "

    " Some interesting information from an amateur author. Hard to sympathize with his naivete and impossible to like Palin. Reading kind of boils down to morbid fascination - like watching a snake eat its prey. "

    " You want to solidfy your opinion that she's crazy and had no business being in government? Read this book. "

    " So glad she wasn't elected! This is one crazy and vindictive woman. No surprise - she is all about money and fame. Lots of talk about honesty and family values but the evidence and her emails show otherwise. Not a great book but enlightening. "

    " An inside look at Sarah Palin's campaign for Governor of Alaska and her subsequent partial service in office. Fascinating but scary "

    " This was very engrossing and fascinating. Frank Bailey is purging his sins, so to speak, and revealing a lot about a very unbalanced woman. "

    " Felt sorry for the author to have endured so much time with her. He now realizes she was not worth the effort. Sort of sorry I read this one--skimmed is a better word. "

    " This was an interesting read. Looking back Frank Bailey sees a lot of the things he and others were called to do for the Palin's questionable, but it doesn't really tell me when he fully realized and how he coped with it (beyond writing this book). "
