Vote for me!!
Just a little political ad in promotion of myself. Because I tell off telemarketers, I think it might be innappropriate to call my fellow Americans at 6 p.m. So I thought I would make a lens and plead my case, as to why I should be McCains running mate.
I didn't always think I could be a V.P. This is a new revelation. In fact, just a few short weeks ago I thought one needed to have qualifications to run for such a high office. (obviously though, I was napping during the Bush/Gore election.)(insert GW laugh here)
So I thought....gee...who is this Sarah Palin? And what does she have that I haven't got? Let's do a side by side comparison, and show you, my fellow Americans, why I would make a better V.P.

So I thought....gee...who is this Sarah Palin? And what does she have that I haven't got? Let's do a side by side comparison, and show you, my fellow Americans, why I would make a better V.P.
- Sarah is a hockey mom.
I am also a hockey mom. Hey,it might only be to a field hockey player, but I know how to root my kid on with the best of em!
Qualifications-I show up at all games, smile brightly when all is not goin' well in the game. (G.W. does this sound familiar?) And...I can lie to my kid and tell her how great the team is doin' just like G.W. but instead of saying "the economy is strong",and "We are winning the war in Iraq" I say, "Gosh, you guys really hustled" and "You didn't win the game, but you win for team spirit"
See? I can do it too. - Sarah is a proud mom to a teenage unwed soon to be mother.
My teenage daughter has a boyfriend too! No she's not preggers...but she's an American teenager just like Bristol Palin....so it can happen! - Mrs. Palin is married with 5 children.
I am married and have 3 kids. And I also have a demanding dog and an obnoxious parrot. Okay, so my kids and pets have normal names, but I am inventive in other ways. So I too am qualified. - Sarah Palin was involved in the PTA.
OK. But, I knew better than to get involved there. Enough said. - Sarah can see Russia from her porch.
Well, so what! I can see New Jersey if I drive 10 minutes to a little known historical landmark called Bowman's Tower, ride the elevator and look out. And, I can one up her. I know some real Russians! - Govenor Palin won't give interviews.
Yeah, well neither would I. I also know nothing about foreign policy...so like Sarah, I also have nothing intelligent to say. - Sarah has cool glasses and pulls her hair up in a neat, messy bun.
Let me tell you. I had those Sarah Palin glasses 1st. And I can braid my hair, and wear it in a messy bun and have been doing so since 1989. - Sarah's husband Todd is more than willing to be 1st dude.
I polled my husband, and he'd give up his job in a heartbeat too! And since I've never slept with anyone but him....he is my 1st dude. So my husband is actually qualified to be 1st dude. - Oprah Winfrey won't interview Sarah Palin.
Gosh, like I know, she won't interview me either. Go figure. - Sarah is pro-life.
Wow, now this is uncanny. I too am prolife. I am absolutely for my life too! - Sarah hunts moose, elk and whatever else grows in Alaska. And she can use a gun!
We don't have moose and elk here in good old Pennsylvania. But what we do have is ginormous wood spiders. And I hunt those suckers and kill them too. I know, I know, your thinking spiders and moose are not the same. But, if you had a wood spider staring you down, you'd squish him too! And if I had a gun, I'd blow off his head. And....wood spiders are in fact furrier than moose. - Sarah's husband rides snowmobiles in his spare time at 3 a.m.
My husband, remember him? 1st dude? He can stay up real late too. He gets on his X-box and flies X-wing fighters at 3 a.m. Hmm...snowmobile rider vs. X-wing fighter pilot? Whose 1st dude now? - Sarah stopped the bridge to nowhere.
Well I practically drive that bridge to nowhere everyday. I get in my SUV, shuttle my kids no less than 4 hours a day and "feel" like I've gotten nowhere. That's the same right? - And...she cleaned up corrupt government in Alaska.
Wow, I can't believe how similar we are. I clean up all day long too! Dirty dishes, discarded socks, disgusting toilets....not to mention cleaning up after the dog and that terrorist parrot we have. After you clean up as much as I do, you would also believe my family is corrupt.
Cleaning up corruption. Old hat. - Global warming? What global warming? Sarah says.
I also say the same thing. See my daughter, the unpregnant teenager (I know, I know, she is a disappointing underachiever, isn't she?)well she had a field hockey game (remember now, I too am a hockey mom)and I had to sit outside for an entire hour, during the 1st cold spell we had here in PA. I froze my butt off. I will not warm up till June. So it is cold here too, just like in Alaska. And how come God isn't giving me a big ol hug to warm me up? - Sarah has little international experience.
This is where I am waaay more qualified than Sarah Palin. I have had tons of international experience. I have been to Bermuda two times, and "It's A Small World" more times than I can count! - Sarah could be a heartbeat away from Presidency.
OK, she might be a hockey mom, I'll give her that, but she has no experience being a hostage like John McCain and I do.
Jamaica Airlines held me, my family and 200 or so other passengers "hostage" on their tarmac for 9 hours. No water, no toilet, no air conditioning, no food even! So until Sarah stops flying private jets and gets held hostage by (insert appropriate airline here) she cannot claim my qualifications. - *In the above mentioned statement, I certainly am showing no disrespect to John McCain. And I know that in "real life" Senator McCain is a hero and I know that I am no more than a hockey mom who sat on a broken plane.
Get out and vote!
So, my fellow Americans, when you are at your polling place ready to pull that leaver for Sarah Palin, think of me. Aren't I just as qualified? Couldn't I, a hockey mom from Pennsylvania, be just as good at being a V.P? Why don't you write my name in instead?
Or.... how about that lady over there?.....she has a vjay-jay too!

- Wow, it's amazing how much you and Sarah Palin have in common. You should definitely consider a run in 2012.

- Hilarious! Thanks for starting my day right. Sorry, I'm not American so can't write your name in on the ballot. But my local municipal elections are coming up. Maybe I can get you a vote for Victoria City Council!
