Leslie Sanchez -- strategist, writer and political seer
-- spent much of 2008 as an analyst on CNN, examining,
investigating and deciphering the historic moment for women
and politics that was the presidential election. And what
she sees in the future is 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 reactions Hillary, Michelle and Sarah provoked from
the small towns to the big city salons to the Sunday talk
shows. 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
for women now and in the future, and also at what leaders
might emerge in 2012, and beyond.
