The Cardigan(s)

"Sarah Palin returned to center stage of a presidential campaign yesterday — a few years older but still wearing her signature rimless eyeglasses. Her auburn hair is bouncier. And her keen ability to capture the spotlight is not at all diminished. The former Alaska governor was in Ames, Iowa, to endorse GOP front-runner Donald Trump. She did so wearing a black pencil skirt topped off with a mini-black cardigan studded with what resembled needle-thin, glistening stalactites. On television, as all that black blurred together, she looked a bit like she was wearing a bedazzled choir robe. She even shouted out for a “Hallelujah!”

As Palin stood behind the lectern firing up the crowd, she happily told them to “look back there in the press box. Heads are spinning, media heads are spinning. This is going to be so much fun.” She expressed great delight in hearing the audience roar its approval. During it all, the cardigan shimmered glamorously under the lights. In her lengthy address, she showered extra love on Iowa farm families, cops, cooks, Teamsters, as well as “you rockin’ rollers. And holy rollers!”"

Depois das botas do Marco Rubio, que nem foram feitas nos EUA, mas sim na Índia, vem o cardigan da Sarah Palin. A Sra. Palin apareceu num evento ao lado de Donald Trump e parece que a estrela da noite foi o casaquinho que ela vestiu, de acordo com o WashPost. Suponho que o objectivo é seduzir o Sr. Trump a ver se, quando chegar a altura de ele ganhar a nomeação Republicana, ela ser escolhida como Vice-Presidente.

Daqui até Novembro, muita água há-de correr na campanha das presidenciais americanas. A melhor parte é que há tempo mais do que suficiente para este pessoal mostrar exactamente o que (não) vale. Entretanto, isto pede uma musiquinha dos The Cardigans, claro. Y'all get your booties ready, ya hear?!?
