Leslie Sanchez -- strategist, writer and political seer --ย spent much of 2008 as an analystย on CNN,ย examining, investigating and decipheringย the historic moment for women and politics that was the presidential election. And what she sees in the future isย a landscape changed drastically for women the world over and their expectations. In You've Come a Long Way, Maybe, she debunks the cultural and political myths surrounding women, and looks at the wide range of reactionsย Hillary, Michelle and Sarah provoked from the small towns to the big city salons to the Sunday talk shows.ย She pays special attention to those most active and most examined during the election: the disappointed Hillary supporters, the rabid Sarah Palin fans, and everyone else wondering about the role of the new First Lady. Along the way, Leslie takes a hard look at what the election will mean forย women now and in the future, and also at what leaders might emerge in 2012, and beyond.
