Palin for the Win?

The election is less than a month away and we still haven't endorsed a presidential candidate... however, it's not for lack of trying.

We've acknowledged an interest in Alaska Governor/Republican Vice Presidential Nominee/Poet Sarah Palin, and I have to say that since then, she's only gotten better and better.

First there was the Vice Presidential debate, where she answered questions as only a surrealist could- by not answering them!

And then, there was this web ad that her campaign ran the next day...

"She killed. It was her evening. She was the star."

My God! It's brilliant. Is it a post-modern comment on America's obsession with celebrity for celebrity's sake instead of celebrity earned through talent and hard work? Or is it a self-aware, self-deprecating jab at the lack of Hollywood support for the GOP? Perhaps a subtle attack of Barack Obama and his unending supply of movie star supporters? Whatever it is, do we love it? You betcha!

Keep up the good work Sarah!
