Sarah Palin is nothing but a little vixen who no doubt will write a book exposing them for what they are so now they must bow to her every whim and as a political payoff Obama and company leave her alone for the most part (no critisism of her ignorance).

Since Hollywood has brought everything else to the wide-screen how long will it be before Mr. Clean makes his debut? He should start hitting the gym instead of the 7-11 at 1am for beer.
