Former Miss Alaska Maryline Blackburn, who beat Sarah Palin for the crown, is set to perform at two inaugural balls Tuesday.

Sarah Palin is NOT going to be thrilled with this.

The woman who edged out the former veep candidate for the title of Miss Alaska 1984 is slotted to perform at not one, but two inaugural balls in Washington, D.C.

Maryline Blackburn, who eventually traded in her tiara for a career as a professional singer, plans to celebrate Barack Obama's ascension to the presidency with gigs at swanky bashes hosted by star musicians Ludacris and Dionne Warwick.

Meanwhile Palin is back in Alaska battling a state deficit.

1. Booya!

[DBoon]

5. More intelligence and sincerity than Sarah Palin will ever have

nt

[Optical.Catalyst]

21. Maybe McCain should have picked Maryline Blackburn instead of Sara Palin

It certainly wouldn't have made it any worse for them.

[applejuice]

37. She couldn't really have been less qualified.

Seriously. I bet any half intelligent person could do better than Sarah Palin, even though she has all that "experience" as a Gov.

Experience doing a crappy job.

[moggie]

25. And more balls n/t

[Vektor]

27. Much prettier, too, IMHO.

Palin is positively vomitous.

[JI7]

2. i would like Sarah Palin to be at the inauguration

i want her to see what she hoped would be her day. but something she will never go through, taking oath for pres or vp.

i hope she is feeling really sad.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

8. I'd like to see her in jail...

along with her idols.

[NBachers]

14. I keep getting flashes of what could've been -

The McCain / Palin inauguration.

Now THERE'S an Alternate Reality that's plummeting straight to the depths of hell.

[Window]

19. Hmmm, if Sassy Sarah saw all the hoopla and

pomp and circumstance firsthand, she'd probably thirst and hunger for the presidency even more. There's no telling what Nutsy Fagan and her 63,000 Palinistas would do to make that happen. LOL!

BTW, I wonder if she was invited to the dinner for John McCain last night. Hmmm.

[mwb970]

32. Dream on.

You are speaking as if Republicans are capable of self-awareness. Heard bush lately? They're not.

[Kittycat]

3. " Meanwhile Palin is back in Alaska battling a state deficit."

I bet she's wishing she didn't give out that extra $2400/person - or whatever outrageous amount that was. There's a reason why governments need a rainy day fund... Counter to Republican thought.

[Ian David]

4. They should make her the new senator from New York! n/t

[Historic NY]

9. No thanks.........no way, no how ,no alaska cow.

[Sultana]

12. Cow?

Are you calling her fat?

[Historic NY]

20. no

a female moose is a cow.

[jeff30997]

30. But I would say that...

She also have the IQ of a cow.:evilgrin:

[Still Sensible]

6. Bravo

What a perfect irony

[beac]

7. Am I a bad person because thinking how this must be ticking Caribou Barbie off gives me a

RIDICULOUS amount of pleasure?? ;)

[xxqqqzme]

10. You'll have to get in the 'bad person'

line behind me then.

[beac]

11. Does that make me Bad Person "First Runner-Up"?

Because I would hate to have even the SLIGHTEST thing in common with Governor Grifter. If "Bad Person" is taken, I guess I'll just have to go with "Princess Schadenfreude" ;).

[calimary]

16. Hey, take a number!

There's a LOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGG line, I suspect. I'm certainly in it!

[ProfessorGAC]

24. Looonnngggg Line? Yep, And I'm In It Too!

This is just hilarious. She loses, then loses, now loses! This is perfect.

[jeff30997]

31. Looonnngggg Line?

Yep,that was a long line.Why do you ask ?



:evilgrin:

[NBachers]

15. Let's hope it gets LOTS of coverage in Alaska papers

'cause, ya know, she reads all of 'em.

[fortyfeetunder]

13. Ride that karma train again and again ba-bee!

This is sweet.

[Brucie Kibbutz]

17. You know Sarah is going to be jealous about this.

"WHY DOES SHE GET ALL THE ATTENTION"? "I AM A MAVERICK AND I DESERVE TO BE ON THAT STAGE, TOO!" WHAAA! :cry:

[Number_Six]

18. A coating of Emerald!...

...for the laughable Ms. Palin, of course, as she turns this lovely shade.

It's a dig. I admit it. Funny, too. Bad funny.

[Bluebear]

22. Sorry, Sarah, only WINNERS are going to be performing :)

[Blue Gardener]

23. I guess they didn't need a flute player

At any of the balls. Too bad for Sarah.

[jeff30997]

33. "they didn't need a flute player"

But I'm sure that this is this talent who made McLame pick her.She played with is flaccid

flute.:evilgrin:

[AsahinaKimi]

26. Oh wow...

Is that like a smack to the face or what? haha

[Vektor]

28. This is brilliant on SO many levels.

I'm loving it. :-)

[liberal N proud]

29. SLAP!

[jeff30997]

34. Ha-Ha !

[Blandocyte]

35. Lucky

[rateyes]

36. Oooooh, that's gotta hurt.

Might have to buy a couple of new CDs today.
