The Palin Portfolio: Take 2
In this blog posting, I shall continue the Sarah Palin scrapbook, which I began with yesterday's posting, Miss Alaska 1984. As you may be aware, our blog formats do not allow us to post more than one photo at a time --- therefore, we have to eliminate one photo in order to post a new one, as I did on my Squirrel Nutkin blog. Since I'm sure some of you might have missed the first Miss America photo, I shall simply post a new blog. Problem solved!
The plot continues to thicken on the political battleground, with each party claiming lipstick descrimination of one sort of another.
This photo, though black and white (the standard back in the prehistoric age of the mid-eighties), clearly shows that the V.P. candidate is certainly skillful in applying her makeup, whether she be hockey mom or pitbull...
This second photo is dated at the same time as the red evening gown shot in the previous blog. Though this one is a head shot, I think it is far the superior of the two photos. In fact, this one is just pretty darned terrific, if you ask me. Her hairstyle even seems a bit more modern in 1984 than it does today...
Of course, to recognize the current Republican candidate, you might need to draw librarian-style glasses on her.
Do you remember the old Superman comics and movies, in which Clark Kent was totally unrecognizable as Superman when he sported those black horn-rimmed glasses? That never seemed believable to me, even when I was a kid...
I don't believe Superman wore any lipstick...
Stay tuned for more riveting lipstick photos tomorrow...

For the women who genuinely supported Hillory, I can't see a switch-over to Palin. The two women don't support the same agendas; in fact, they're opposites on most issues.
I remember when the opposing forces critized Obama for being able to make a pretty speech. Now we have a GOP candidate who not only made a terrific speech, she's a real looker, to boot. It makes for some lively television coverage, for sure.
And, yes, it's easy to see the media bias: CBS has been working overtime to counter the various GOP allegations about Obama, and the network has also been presenting the other side of Palin's claims, such as the one about opposing "the Bridge to Nowhere." However, these media efforts should be transparent to most viewers, who should still have no problem in thinking for themselves.
As for myself, I have to distance myself from the ugliness of the political race, or I'll get completely depressed. That's why my blogs may sometimes seem so flippant.
