BUILDING WHERE IS SARAH WIDGET: Need help from DU'ers!
Hey everyone, I am going to build a viral widget like the 'thugs did for Obama/Iraq. This time we are going to expose the hypocrisy of how the GOP is hiding Mrs. Palin from the press.

I want to get this right, so if you can help me with the following, I'd really appreciate it.

INFORMATION:
* I need a catch line or two for the intro to the webpage.
* When was the last time Sarah Palin spoke with the press?

GRAPHICS:
* Any designers out there want to make a 153px × 53px image that says something like "DAYS SINCE SARAH PALIN SPOKE TO THE PRESS" (similar to )

Any other information we might need?

I am looking to build this over the next few hours and distribute.

4. thanks!!
I'll make a couple of different ones people can choose from! (Now that's democracy)

You guys rock!

Now I just need the exact date she actually had a real press conference and some zinger text to introduce it. Come on people, I know one of your smart DU community organizers has something for us!

Here is what I have so far:

"Sarah Palin hasn't had a single press conference, interview, or question and answer session with the general press since she was designated to be our next Vice President by the McCain campaign. Add this widget to your homepage, MySpace, signature, or wherever else to let everyone know how quiet Sarah has been keeping."

11. And another DUer said catching her quickly would be important. So I'll let up on you all

pushing for an interview ASAP.

You could perhaps check her governor website's press release section to find most recent press conference.
Or the Google.

8. Suggestion: "Days since Sarah Palin answered a question" Because...
The GOP hates the press and beats up on them. But it's not like she's taking townhall-style questioning. NOBODY gets to ask her anything.
