Palin grabs a seat at the bar

By CATHERINE LUCEY
Philadelphia Daily News

Perhaps it was coincidence that the song "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" was playing as Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin worked the crowd at the Irish Pub last night.

But her amorous fans were definitely ready to let the moose-hunting Alaska governor rule.

"I expect her to be president of the United States one day," said Suzanne Haney, the Republican leader for the 2nd Ward in South Philadelphia, who gave Palin a $2 bill for luck.

Palin appeared at the bar on 20th and Walnut streets last night to shake hands with her fans for about an hour before the first presidential debate. While the crowd inside was friendly, hundreds of people lined the street outside in protest that read things like "Palin is Santorum With Lipstick."

..................

She is going to need a big drink before the debate next week!

4. "Santorum with Lipstick"

Oh my, this could get ugly...

5. You're insulting Sanscrotum?

As much as I don't like Rick Santorum, this is beyond insulting. Even if his talking points were bad, at least he's articulate. I can't say as much for Sarah Palin.

[MetaTrope]

6. No

I'm just thinking of the images this evokes with the pop culture meaning of "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santorum_(sexual_neologism)">santorum".

9. She wore jeans, a t-shirt, and a leopard skin belt???!!?

Jesus Christ on a subway platform, WTF?? Look, I despise the way women politicians are scrutinized for how they dress and groom themselves but anyone who is aspiring to an office of that importance, male or female, needs to show some decorum in the way they present themselves in public. Casual attire is perfectly fine for Friday at a bar but leopard skin anything is just...wrong. It's like Barack or Joe showing up somewhere in a backwards baseball cap, a sports jersey, and baggy jeans. Who the fuck dressed her that day?

12. It's the Jenna Bush ploy

Remember when she showed up in court for her underage drinking hearing wearing a tank top, shorts and sandals?

14. Barack wearing a clock around his neck

Flavor Flav style..,that should shake up the Inaugural Ball, ya think?

[firedupdem]

10. They are like pimps sending a cheap whore out to turn tricks...

why isn't she dressed appropriately? Is the office you're running for not deserving of that? I don't care that she was at a bar...they sent her out like she was a whore for them. That dude she's standing next to has on a sport coat. This whole charade is getting old rather quickly.

11. "relating to the common person," "going for a run with the Secret Service in tow."

:argh: No more Dubyas!

[Fluffdaddy]

13. "Palin did not take questions from reporters nor did she talk policy"

Not surprised at all

[jillan]

15. She should have been out there congratulating McCain, as Biden

was doing for Obama.


How embarassing for her.
