Just how much of a draw is Sarah Palin among conservatives?
A Palin impersonator drew dozens of excited, mostly young CPAC attendees around her in the hotel lobby here just as Mitt Romney, the GOP's ostenisble frontrunner, was taking the stage. Continue Reading
Informed that it was not Palin, many of the gawkers shrugged and kept pushing forward with cameras and cellphones raised in the air just to glimpse the Alaskan doppleganger.
And from a distance, the impersonator did look the part - the hair, the glasses, the red suit.
Up close, though, was a different story.
She resembled Palin but when she opened her mouth the attempt at an accent came off as more Chicago than Wasilla.

I know! I know!
They could have Tina Fey come and say a bunch of stupid stuff and then treat them like Palin quotes!

When Sarah appeared in Troy, Ohio with Boehner in 2008, there was an impostor there too. and she really did look like Sarah.

She resembled Palin but when she opened her mouth the attempt at an accent came off as more Chicago than Wasilla. i.e., after letting loose with a belch that reeked of kielbasa, she bellowed "vote early and vote often!"

We had one in Wichita last May when Palin appeared here. Prolly the same one, looking for her 15 minutes of fame.

The Democrats have somebody impersonating Barack Obama Jr. showing up at their events too. And living in the White House.
Today is a good day to die.
I didn't say for whom.

Ah...it looks like this woman is trying to make money off her impression of Sarah and showed up at CPAC to do some advertising. Good thing that the governor trademarked her name...
Funny though how everyone leaped up and ran over to her just as Romney started speaking when they thought that Sarah had actually walked through the door.

I know a guy who looked like Jimmy Carter who made a lot of money in a Coke commercial....his line was “It’s the real thing.”
