Forget Spin Doctors, Get Palin a Stylist!

The RNC spent $150K on clothing and accessories for Sarah Palin since late August. The bulk of this was spent at Neiman's ($75K) and the rest at Saks. She has spent close to $5K on her hair. Palin's spokesperson, Tracey Schmitt is appalled that so much energy from the press is being focused on "pantsuits and blouses."

I'm appalled, too. All that money and they STILL can't dress Palin any better? Much more has been said about how attractive she is. I've scratched my head on that one, because while she's attractive enough, she's the very definition of a frump--$5K on hair in two months and they can't give her a style that doesn't scream Pentecostal? As for her clothes, she looks like  a wolf (shot from a helicopter) in Republican clothes.  

This, for once and for all, proves what I've always said. Republicans are milk toast when it comes to style. Therefore, vote Democrat. We need Armani in the White House, not St. John. Besides, Nancy Regan did "that one" to death.

People Can't Be THAT Stupid

As an old marketing war horse, I'm crying foul. I know a play by my own kind when I see one.  I don't buy all these really, really, really stupid people at McCain rallies who are standing up and telling him, "Gee Senator McCain, I'm scared of that mean old Obama terrorist, he's an Arab! He's a Muslim, He's a terrorist." Those people are planted by the evil marketing geniuses of the RNC. God. Hat's off to you,evil RNC marketing geniuses. You guys are really over the top.

I know there are dumbasses out there. I see them everyday. But look at those people asking McCain these questions. They are perfect stereotypes of your average American redneck. That old lady with her hair, her barely-English hick talk, her clothes? She's was totally set up to ask that question. Notice how she stumbles with her words? She's not an  actress, but I'll bet money she was paid to get up and say that stuff.

I underestimate many things: mother nature, bad manners, hangovers --- but I NEVER underestimate Republicans with a marketing degree. Those people are more resourceful than a gold digger chasing a rich old geezer. They'll do anything to reach their goal. Including planting some crackers in an audience to make idiotic statements. 

A new twist on "Get out and Vote!"

Someone sent me this, and it took me a few seconds to figure out the yiddish. In case you are a hopeless gentile like me, it's an odd little plea to vote for Obama.

And it's a backhanded compliment at the same time. Kind of like, "Hey Binx, that lipstick makes your hips look smaller."
