For much of the past century, public discourse about gender and
politics has been driven largely by progressive women-those voices
on the left that support policies widely considered to be
pro-women. Little scholarly attention has been paid to the dialogue
of conservative women, and what literature there is tends to focus
on specific issues rather than fundamentals like social and
political identity. The authors focus on this under-studied yet
rhetorically interesting group and their approach to political
speech. The narratives and policy positions of Condoleezza Rice,
Nikki Haley, Teri Lynn Land, Susana Martinez, Joni Ernst and others
are examined for the ways in which they frame their political
images as women in the GOP.

Rachel Friedman has always been the consummate good girl who does
well in school and plays it safe, so the college grad surprises no
one more than herself when, on a whim (and in an effort to escape
impending life decisions), she buys a ticket to Ireland, a place
she has never visited. There she forms an unlikely bond with a
free-spirited Australian girl, a born adventurer who spurs Rachel
on to a yearlong odyssey that takes her to three continents, fills
her life with newfound friends, and gives birth to a previously
unrealized passion for adventure.
As her journey takes her to Australia and South America, Rachel
discovers and embraces her love of travel and unlocks more truths
about herself than she ever realized she was seeking. Along the
way, the erstwhile good girl finally learns to do something she's
never done before: simply live for the moment.
