Even though Sarah Palin could start her own Oprah book club — the book she recommended in an interview with Barbara Walters last night, Confessions of an All-Night Runner, went from No. 13,086 to No. 4,764 on Amazon’s most read list overnight — she’s clearly switching gears to focus on her more serious side.
Her reality show is nearly done, Dancing with the Stars is over as is her second book tour. Tomorrow, Palin is heading to Haiti with Franklin Graham — a dual hit, according to Politico, that helps her with both foreign policy experience and amongst evangelical voters. Today, in a Wall Street Journal op-ed, she endorsed Paul Ryan’s road map. Palin, it seems, is moving away from brand-building celebrity to serious potential-presidential candidate.
