Sarah's Fate

From her designer glassess to her snazzy outfits, Governor Sarah Palin was in and out like the hi-top fade cut trend. She definitly created a stir within the campaign. Unfortunately her light didn't shine so bright as things progressed in the election. There's a number of factors which led to her short-lived popularity, many which are now voiced by anonymous Republican campagin sources. She came in with such a full force, though. The media had a field day with her. The opposing campaign had to have felt some kind of concern over their fate. I have to admit, it was a very strategic move by McCain - trying to save his troubled campaign by adding a young, "picture perfect" woman. No shady past, can relate very much to the typical American woman and can compensate for the issue about McCain's age. We didn't know it then, but after the campagin was over and President Elect Obama celebrated his victory, things here and there crept up about Sarah Palin - her inability to stay on cue with speech topics, the controversy surrounding her pricey wardrobe, prioritizing her own self-interest ahead of the campaigns'. So now that she's basically been admired, questioned, examined, scrutinized, and then forgotten by the American public and the media - what's Sarah's fate? Travel back to Alaska and regain control of her position as the Governor? Some have suggested starting up a talk show? Travel around the nation and deliver speeches? Stay at home and take care of her growing family?

I have a suggestion. What about becoming a "community organizer"? Apparently they're known to make something of themselves and even end up becoming Presidents.
