Bristol Palin: Hillary Clinton Fears My Mom

Bristol Palin, the daughter of former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin (R), said on Thursday that Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton feared her mother after the former Alaska governor's name appeared in a batch of emails that was made public on Thursday.

In 2011, Clinton sent an email fuming about a State Department decision to replace "mother" and "father" on passport applications with gender-neutral language.

"I’m not defending that decision, which I disagree w and knew nothing about, in front of this Congress. I could live w letting people in nontraditional families choose another descriptor so long as we retained the presumption of mother and father," Clinton wrote. ""We need to address this today or we will be facing a huge Fox-generated media storm led by [Sarah] Palin et al."

In a blog post, Bristol Palin wrote that Clinton's concern with backlash was evidence that the former secretary of state was wary of her mother's influence.

"The liberals like Hillary Clinton would have you believe all sorts of lies about my mother," she wrote. "But, behind closed doors, we find out all sorts of truths, including the fact that Hillary fears my mom’s power."

I am pretty sure after watching Hillary the last 20 odd years she isn't afraid of anyone except the polls.

Beat from being president. I think Obama is a great president but if Obama would have lost I would not want to think about the crazy things Palin might have tried.

Nobody is afraid of her. She's a national joke. Even other large segments of the right have marginalized her. She's nothing anymore.

And, had that happened, i'd be right with you. At this point, nobody fears Sarah Palin. She's yesterday's news.
