I caught a few minutes of “The View” today. Elisabeth Hasselbeck is one of the hosts. She used to host “The Look For Less” on the Style Network. It was a show about shopping and makeovers for ordinary people on a budget, copying runway style in preparation for a special event. I watched it a couple of times. The outfits are adequate, but they are never as good as the original designer clothes.
Sarah Palin looked great last night.
I can do that.
If I had a national televised debate tonight, I could be ready by show time.
All I have to do to look as competent and professional as Sarah Palin is to go uptown to Bergdorf Goodman or Saks Fifth Avenue, buy an outfit and then go to an upscale salon and have my hair colored and styled.
I can do that anytime I want–I have a credit card! (Oh crap, what if Wall Street crashes and we don’t bail out Hank Paulson, no credit, I won’t get my makeover…)
As for the policy questions..
That’s completely irrelevant.
