Is Sarah Palin Relevant?

The Brody File was watching Sarah Palin’s comedy bit on "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon" and it made me wonder the following: Is Sarah Palin relevant?

The answer is a bit complicated. Is she taken seriously as a politician by the liberal mainstream media? No. But do they still pay attention to her every move? Yes they do.

Why is that? Yes, part of it has to do with the fact that there is a certain carnival atmosphere surrounding how she goes about her business. I mean, she knows how to command an audience and entertain. But let's not forget for a moment that she still has a robust, dedicated following.

I'm not just talking about her millions of followers on Facebook and Twitter. I'm talking about how in certain congressional districts in this country, her word matters. An endorsement from Sarah Palin can make a difference for a candidate in a tight race.

Also, let's be totally truthful here. As much as the mainstream media can't stand her, they listen to what she says. She has a megaphone. Liberals might call that scary but Palin has the power to help shape the political conversation in America.

And that's the dirty little secret liberals would rather not hear. But it's truth.

So, is Sarah Palin relevant? “You betcha.”
