lets hope that number goes to 50,000...but 10,000 will do in this economy......a 10,000 drop is very significant.

There are many reports of Palin gear flying off the shelves. I have heard two reports of eyeglass suppliers who cannot keep up with the demand for Palin style glasses. That is a true gauge of her popularity. I remember when JFK was elected, men quit using Brylcream, Vitalis and other hair oil “junk.” JFK went to the inauguration bear headed and the hat undustry tanked.

Obama is in deep doo-doo and he knows it.

You may remember that during the great flooding in the Mississippi valley some years back, the widow of the McDonald's founder (Koch?) contributed a large sum of money for the aid of those caught in the floods. The only thing she asked in return - the only thing - was that her contribution be kept anonymous.

A local paper printed the story and indentified her - the "public right to know." They were bankrupt within days - infuriated subscribers canceled by the hundreds.
