It’s okay. It’s gonna be hard to pass up though. Palin may just be the hottest ticket in town right now (and I mean in any town, not just Wasilla, Alaska).
But you know, consider this. It’s Oprah’s show and she has made it quite clear who she’s voting for. Obama. C’mon. How unsupportive would it be for her to host Palin? Totally wrong. Don’t worry, Oprah. You will probably regret missing out on the most amazing woman in the history of the GOP, though.
Oprah and Palin wouldn’t have to discuss anything about the election! They could talk family, the stress of being governor of a huge state, having FIVE kids while being governor of a huge state (dude, Sarah’s amazing), and Sarah’s clean up of the old boy’s club up there (which were Republicans, mind you). Dirty bastards. Take that! Give ‘em hell, Sarah!
Seriously, I’d watch her on Oprah even if she weren’t running for VP with John McCain. The lady rocks! I have actually cheered for her so many times this week that my husband just plugs his ears every time we see a glimpse of a replay of her speech (Sar-ah! Sar-ah! Sar-ah!)
I know, if you’re an Obama supporter, you really hate everything Sarah Palin stands for. She probably scares the shweet-shwoo out of a Democrat or anyone who was hoping Obama would run against McCain and just another white guy. Let me apologize in advance for ruining your autumn.
We are going to drive you crazy for the next 2 months while we celebrate–raucously–in the aisles of grocery stores, in our cars as we drive our kids to soccer, in the dentist waiting room, on the elliptical machines at the gym, while reading PEOPLE (we’re boycotting US Weekly because of that terrible cover, remember?) at the hairdressers, even when discussing this month’s book at our local book club. We’ll be walking with a lighter step, smiling more, laughing louder, and wearing lipstick (“the difference between a pitbull and a hockey mom”) with pride. Sarah Palin has rocked the core of the GOP and it is about freaking time.
The rumblings have and will continue to grow, day after day, all the way to November. This is not going to stop on November 4 though, no matter who wins. We have waited for this for too long. Do you know how we’ve longed for a hockey mom with a brain to stand up to the stupid money-spenders in our party and say, “get the hell out!”? A long, long, long, long time. Game ON!
So, I’ll keep hollering my chant and hope that McCain actually brought her on his ticket because he wants to reform our government, not because he just wanted to be president. I can hope. And the GOP voters deserve that this fall. After all, we have to claim those old boys from Alaska and elsewhere that have spent our money and ignored everything we asked for in election after election. The GOP you don’t see on the news everyday wants fiscal and personal responsibility first and foremost and we’ve had a string of very bad, bad representatives. And in the tradition of Sarah Barracuda, I think their time has come. Buh-bye, boys.
Finally, a WOMAN we can follow who GETS what we’ve been saying for way too long:
“I put it on eBay.”
Amen and amen.
(Sar-ah, Sar-ah, Sar-ah)
