Sarah and Carrie have got looks, they got books

[Louisiana1976]

SYRACUSE, N.Y. - On the very day that Sarah Palin set out on a multi-city book tour to promote her best-seller "Going Rogue," U.S. Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, insisted that she "has the ability to draw crowds. And if she has a strong message to go with that, who knows what she can do? She has star power, which can open doors."

SYRACUSE, N.Y. - The fly in the buttermilk, as we Texans like to say, is that Chaffetz wasn't talking about the former Republican candidate for vice president and potential front-runner for the party's top spot in 2012. Instead, he was referring to Carrie Prejean, the former Miss California forced to abdicate her throne after a one-woman sex tape surfaced. Too hot for the usual cable outlets, her performance, to put it gently, belied the clean-cut image associated with our pre-eminent beauty pageant.

Incredibly, Prejean likewise has a book of her own to hawk, "Still Standing," published by the conservative Regnery house. She's been doing just that in an intriguing if unconscious competition with Palin. The former Alaskan governor won an interview with one of the nation's top women in modern media, Oprah Winfrey. Great! But Prejean got herself booked with Barbara Walters. Awesome!

2. Still standing after being exposed as a total hypocrite and phoney. Now there's something

to be proud of.

3. Palin and Prejean are the human equivalent of 'stone soup'

they brought the stone - everyone else put in the ingredients

bring to a boil - serve to the media

4. Dumb and dumber.

And the people who actually buy these books are even dumber. What percentage of copies do you think will go unread?

7. sorry, carrie didn't get fired as miss CA for the sex tapes--she had been fired months before that

for failure to perform her contractual duties as miss CA (don't forget, trump didn't even fire her when the nudie pic came out)

the sex tape thing merely cancelled her million-dollar lawsuit against the pageant.

come one, mcclatchy, you usually do better than this.

8. Finally

Carrie will "meeted" Bah Bah Wah Wah.

9. Best comment on Ms. Prejean's tape(from a post on DU, I believe):

"Her body is a temple and she was just scrubbin' the floor"
