Would Hillary wear these red shoes? Sarah Palin does, although appropriately and discreetly beneath a smart navy blue skirt-and-jacket suit (no, no pantsuit here.)
A remote-state politician, unknown and undisturbed by Washington, manages to make inroads into Republican politics with tough judgments and decisive rulings. No hedging around for this lady.
Yes, McCain made a calculated move. But since when is calculation a bad thing in politics? And all those commentators who keep going on about his age, and how he might die before his term is up leaving the country with an "inexperienced" candidate who can't sit across Putin? Well, how cynical. What a way to plan once's future, based on one's death? A five year-old, God forbid, can just as likely die tomorrow from a car accident!
And, standing up to Putin could just be what Sarah Palin might do. If her interest is the best for her homeland, as she's said in her speeches, and done in her actions, then she will be a fighter. Isn't that what Putin is unashamedly doing?
After all, Dorothy's ruby slippers were her assurance to go back to her beloved home. And like her loyalty to her home state, which she never left, unlike other politicians, Palin surely knows what the bigger picture of a "homeland" means.
But in her perennial confusion, Hillary sneakily endorses Sarah in complete turnabout to her DNC speech of Democratic unity. She shouldn't be so gleeful, because her next opponent four years from now could well be Sarah. What will she do then? Wear red?
