Gateway Patriot Reviews 'Going Rogue'

*
A few excerpts from Gateway Patriot's review of Going Rogue:
Chapter five provided not only the justification for her resignation, but some great personal stories that dovetailed into broad economic policy points of less government and individual freedom. I also finally understood her resignation.

[...]

The policy portions of the 5th chapter became a symphony in the 6th. Palin’s “way forward” included what she officially dubbed “Commonsense Conservatism”.  Personally, I much prefer that to being a Bush “Compassionate Conservative”.  She artfully and swiftly tore into President Obama’s policies and explained core planks of Commonsense Conservatism. This chapter was the shortest of them all, but it packed a lot in. 

Overall, I saw this book as Palin’s re-coming out and reintroduction to the American people. She needed to do this because her first intro was bungled by a bunch of elite campaign buffoons. Now, if she wants to make a run at the White House, she’s got to write another book that’s all policy. She’s laid out a philosophy, but now she must apply Commonsense Conservatism to common problems.
