These women are front runners in the conservative movement. They both reach millions of conservative women and have re-defined conservative feminism with their whit and beauty. Sarah Palin won audiences over with her "down-to-earth Alaska personality" and Bachmann won audiences over with her "
take-charge attitude loving America spirit". Crazy, I know.

With Martina McBride's "This One's for the Girls" blaring in the background, Bachmann and Palin took the stage in a blur of waving hands, teased hair, floral prints and piled-on pearls. Far away from Michael Steele's sex-club scandal and John Boehner's "Hell No!" legislative strategy, Palin and Bachmann gave their mostly female audience of more than 11,000 a riled up hour of newfangled Republican girl power.

But the biggest thought that plagues the minds of millions of liberals is "why are these women so popular?" The answer is easy, they relate to their public and push the boundaries of their politics. They both have families and each of them stick strongly to their moral beliefs, many liberal feminists may hate them, but you have to admit, they are money making machines, not to mention, they shed a new light on what conservative feminism really is and how to market it to a majority of women.

"In politics, if you want something said, ask a man. If you want something done, ask a woman," Palin joked to the delight of the crowd, quoting Margaret Thatcher. "My own mantra is that behind every good, productive man stands a very surprised woman."

Sarah Palin has had a rough year. She was the Former Governor of Alaska, her daughter was pregnant during her VP Presidential Campaign (SCANDAL), and she decided not to abort her child who inevitably had down's syndrome. Her story is interesting, but many women feel she is the perfect role model, not only for their family, but for America. She is pro-life and she prides herself on making sure she "fights for the rights" of women, maybe not for their reproductive health, but for the right to a family and career. She makes conservative women believe, "they can have it all!"

On health care reform, Bachmann promised to push for repeal. "You better believe it, baby! Repeal is what this girl is going to be all about after November." On federal spending, she promised to shrink it. "We're going to start by starving the beast!" On the details of all this, she sort of fudged it (the government owns or controls 51 percent of the American economy?), but that's not the point right now.

Both of these women are nightmares when it comes to the newer feminist generation. They focus on old-school values and shy away from the new era of what feminism represents.

According to Politics Daily, "Along with their super-sized political influence, Palin and Bachmann are both prolific mothers (they have five children each) and pro-life activists. Bachmann has been a foster parent to 23 children with her husband and Palin was outspoken in her choice not to end her pregnancy upon learning that her fifth child would have Down syndrome."

Palin and Bachmann have been pegged as conservative women's "Hilary Clinton's". They are deemed pretty, smart, and represent what the conservative feminist "feel is their view on what women should look like."

"No matter how you look at it, it is just good to have strong, positive female role models in political life," said Marjorie Dannenfelser, chair of the conservative Susan B. Anthony List. "For only one model to have been represented, basically cutting out half of the female population in terms of mentorship, can never be a good thing."

So, if you are a conservative woman or maybe you are liberal what do you think? Does Palin and Bachmann represent the old-school conservative feminism or are they creating a new feminism for conservative young women?

I consider myself a liberal feminist, but I find the approach that Palin and Bachmann are taking very interesting. It is going to be interesting to watch their relationship grow, Does anyone smell a Palin and Bachmann Presidential Ticket? It's going to be interesting to watch...What are your thoughts?
