A mannequin closely resembling governor, Sarah Palin, was hung by the neck outside a home in West Hollywood in honor of Halloween. On the roof sat a replica of Senator John McCain surrounded by flames apparently being burnt to death. This public display created complaints from the locals.  Officials dismissed the complaints however, claiming the homeowner was protected by the right of free speech.

Hey, I’d vote for Palin to be Vice President. Sure, vice-president of my PTA but, not of my country. I like to vote for people who went to a school that I couldn’t get into. But, I think I could even get into Univ of Idaho. Sure, everyone loves to berate to Jamie Lynn Spears because of her teen pregnancy but, we’re just glad the Bristol bravely chose to keep the baby. In politics, we vote for people that are holier than thou, perfect specimens of humanity that have never committed a grevious act like say trying to get their former brother-in-law canned. So, we have a guy who even the Republican party didn’t really want and he goes out and picks someone that no one even heard of in the 48 contiguous states.  You know, that’s just not me venting!

In a Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll out today  puts McCain 10 points behind his Democratic rival Barack Obama, 55 percent of respondents and potential voters said they believed that Palin is not cut out to be vice president. Even more troubling, many Republican voters unhappy with Palin are seeing their misgivings confirmed, above all with the “troopergate” scandal, in which the governor is being investigated for alleged abuse of power in trying to get her ex-brother-in-law fired from the Alaska state police force.

In any case, I guess you can’t put lipstick on pig after all (figure of speech, in no way is Sara Palin being referred to as pig, just the idea of her nomination).  The Politico website late Tuesday caused a stir by publishing financial records of the Republican National Committee showing it has spent more than 150,000 dollars on clothes for Palin since she was picked by McCain at the end of August.

Remember to Vote! 

Okay, Sara or Tina? Who’s the better Sara Palin? Tina Fey, as talented as she is, we expect her to have the glamourous look of a TV Star. But, Sara Palin??? You don’t expect a mother of five and possibly just a “heartbeat” away from being the President of the free world to be a looker, right? In any case, what’s her secret? Does moose hunting burn more calories than an hour on the treadmill?

The big buzz is that Tina Fey said in a TV Guide interview “I’ll tell you, that lady is five times better-looking than I am. She’s 44? She’s got none of that droopy (stuff). She’s keeping it tight!” You can probably thank the cold Alaskan nights for that. No wrinkles or droops, we call that shrinkage.
