Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin’s newest hater hails from the literary camp — the author of “Waiting to Exhale,” Terry McMillan.

Miss McMillan tweeted just recently: “If I ever run into Sarah Palin I might just smack her.”

She didn’t explain her view, but Miss McMillan is a noted liberal supporter of all things President Obama, Breitbart reported.

Miss McMillan on previous occasions has compared the Republican Party to Hitler. In June 2012 she tweeted: “The Republicans are behaving just like Hitler did.” And she’s called former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney a sociopath.

In a series of tweets in August 2012, she hoped that Mr. Obama would “slay” Mr. Romney — a “sociopath” — in the November presidential election. And she condemned rich people: “The rich have it made and yet they still find reasons to whine. Why enough still isn’t enough.” She then tweeted: “It’s ironic how much rich people complain about money when they have so much of it.”
