I have my Sarah Palin screensaver staring at me as I type.

Just looking at her makes me happy.

But I live in Big Bad California. Work in Evil Hollywood.

I know California is probably going down to Obama.

BUT. I think Palin should waltz through this state anyway.

Yeah. Start in gay ol’ Palm Springs. Then La Jolla (lots of GOPers there...)

Then ORANGE COUNTY.

Then, gasp, Hollywood. With plenty of Secret Service mind you. David Horowitz and Lyonel Chetwind would love her.

Then the Valley. Porn Capital of the World but also a lot of churches. Encino, Agoura Hills...

then back to Malibu. Yeah. Malibu.

Then Santa Barbara. Lots of GOPers there still.

Then oh, I don’t know... Central Valley farmers.

Then, Carmel/Monterey. She’d love it. She should meet up with Doris Day at her hotel. Doris is still a GOPer.

Then geez, I guess, San Fran. Why not? And Silicon Valley. Go over to Apple and shake hands with American ingenuity and winners in a deathbound stock market.

Then Redding at least. Lots of crazy Christians, but GOPers in that ol’ hippie town.

Sacramento would be really walking into a beehive but Sarah would get so much National Press coverage on this “wasted” California trip — she would be amazed.

Ooops forgot Santa Cruz.

Get those old hippies and libs and Hollywooders by showing you ain’t afraid of them Sarah. You’ve got a lot of Cali fans. Even Hollywood is afraid of you... you’ve got more STAR POWER then any one of them.

I’d just go in like her hero and mine, Abe Lincoln once said: “The best way for a young man to succeed in this world is to take act as if no one is against him...”

I think Old Abe would appreciate the modification to “young female VP hopeful”...

Now that was one adorable and funny post. Thanks for being so boldly pro-Californian on a website that doesn't much appreciate the state!

I'm an ex-Californian, and even though I've bashed California many times here on the FR, my heart skipped a beat with each California town that you mentioned. I have good memories about most of them.

And yes, I agree with you that many in California would love to see Sarah and vice versa. However, Sarah is a true warrior, and she is needed badly in the Battleground states. We can win without California's electoral votes. She is more valuable to all of us when she applies her firepower where it will do the most good.

Heck, I'd love to see her here in Dallas, which is a possibility on Oct 3, but then again I tell myself, "What good would it be for her to be in Texas when Team McCain is a sure thing here?" So, I'm resigned to the potential disappointment that she won't be here as planned on 10/3.

For our own good, we would be better off if she spent all her time in the Battlegrounds. You and I are just going to have to take one for the team. We'll have to do without seeing her in our respective states during the next six weeks.
