Hmmmmm, very disturbing. Perhaps Sarah Palin should do some Revlon commercials instead of being a V.P. candidate. Or, uhm, perhaps Sarah Palin should be palling around with Lindsey Lohan and Paris Hilton instead of being a V.P. candidate. Maybe Sarah Palin should go back to being a sports anchor instead of being a V.P. candidate.
I'm sure most of us have heard that according to recent polling McCain has gained about 20 points amongst women over Obama in the last 2 weeks. Hmmm, is that primarily because women like how Sarah Palin looks? Perhaps she should have her own T.V. show set in alaska where she kills things, eats things and makes grand pronouncements about the will of God instead of being a V.P. candidate. None of this is to say there is anything wrong with Sarah Palin being attractive (if she is, which I am indifferent to), but couldn't she at least be about anything other than being attractive just so all of this wouldn't be such a joke? I'd seriously like to hear a single woman tell me one thing they like about Sarah Palin besides her appearance or that she is tough or something like that. What would Sarah Palin do as V.P. besides help cosmetics makers sell product?
