<title>Former Sarah Palin Aide To Publish Memoir in May</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img class="size-full wp-image-28161    alignright" title="bacover" src="http://www.mediabistro.com/galleycat/files/2011/04/bacover.jpg" alt="" width="188" height="188" />Former <strong>Sarah Palin</strong> aide <strong>Frank Bailey</strong> has landed a deal with Simon &amp; Schuster&#8217;s Howard Books. His memoir, <em>Blind Allegiance to Sarah Palin</em>, will be released on May 24th.</p>
<p>Bailey became close to former vice presidential candidate <strong>Sarah Palin</strong> during her gubernatorial campaign; he remained in her inner circle  during <strong>John McCain</strong>&#8216;s presidential race. He co-wrote the memoir along with author <strong>Ken Morris</strong> and <a href="http://www.themudflats.net/">Mudflats</a> blogger <strong>Jeanne Devon</strong>. On her site, Devon <a href="http://www.themudflats.net/2011/04/19/blind-allegiance-to-sarah-palin-is-coming-preorder-now/#comments">revealed</a> that the three writers spent two years on this project.</p>
<p>Bailey had this statement in the press release: &#8220;I write because I am convinced that Sarah’s priorities and personality are not only ill-suited to head a political party or occupy national office, but would lead to a disaster of, well, biblical proportions.&#8221;</p>
