She fakes it with Ken. She comes with G.I. Joe

Caribou Barbie - wonderful
I can mention that safely here (EEA) and get a laugh

In the pub... not so much. Those that have heard of her think she's the best thing since mooseburger. They'd love a Sarah Palin as a candidate here.

Of course she wouldn't work in the UK - hunting is generally lumped in with blood sports and God is never brought into politics. Abstinance-only education is laughed at and creationism is considered the realm of nut-jobs. They just like her because she's conservative and a woman and it makes them dream of the blessed days of Thatcher the milk snatcher.

I don't recall her being connected to Caribou, but she has killed moose!

Caribou:




Moose:

Barbie didn't kill any Malibus either, but the name worked... Are you suggesting Mattel recall all those dolls because they're misleadingly labeled?

I heard a Republican on NPR refer to Palin-McCain voters. Has the ticket flipped for social conservatives? There is a pretty good chance that McCain will die on the job, are the nutters counting on it?

[Pico and ME]

She herself referred to it as the Palin/McCain administration in her speech yesterday.

Hell--*I* slipped and called it the McPalin ticket in conversation with Tink yesterday.

Why are we still not talking about substance?

Maybe I'll stop talking about her after I make this observation:

I keep drawing parallels to the Pappy O'Daniel/Homer Stokes battle for Governor of Mississippi.


Junior O'Daniel: We could hire our own midget, even shorter than his.
Pappy O'Daniel: Wouldn't we look like a bunch of Johnny-come-latelies, bragging on our own midget, doesn't matter how stumpy.

We must replace "midget" with "woman"; "shorter" with "cuter" and "stumpy" with "cunning."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the next example, I think of Pappy as Obama and Junior as his campaign manager:

Pappy O"Daniel: "We need a shot in the arm. You hear me boys? In the bleepdamn arm! Election held tomorrw, that son of bitch Palin would win it in a walk!"
Junior O'Daniel: "Well' she's the reform candidate, Daddy."
Pappy O"Daniel: "Yeah."
Junior O'Daniel: "A lot of people like that reform. Maybe we should get us some."
Pappy O"Daniel: "I'll reform you, you soft-headed son of a bitch."

Just stuff that runs through my head every time I see the "maverick" commercial.
