Palin's hairdo: Not smart to get some styling before going to the rust belt.

[LiberalHeart]

Notice the new shine, the smoothed out lines, the, uh, grooming. I think the stylists are getting hold of her and that'll dull her appeal to folks who see her as "real" ... and yes, I realize this is a petty point. I'm looking for diversions from all the depressing sh*t that's come our way today via the market and Ike.

Reference: video of Palin on MSNBC today. They've showed it off and on when doing excerpts from her Hannity interview and reports on her Michigan appearance.

1. She did a Hannity interview? How did that go? nt

[LiberalHeart]

2. I don't know if it aired yet or if it was a sneak peek. I didn't listen; I looked at the hair.

[gateley]

3. Feel free to PM me if you want to get into hair, makeup, wardrobe, whatever

and don't feel comfortable posting it here. I love that shit!

Now I'm eagerly awaiting photos/clips to see what you're referring to.

[LiberalHeart]

5. I don't even know how to PM. The change is subtle, but it's clear she's being "cleaned up"

[blondeatlast]

9. No, no, no--I wanna jump in too! I'm a big time fashionista even if it's almost all from Target! nt

[LiberalHeart]

12. I'm a Goodwill/Salvation Army kinda girl, but when I'm rich I'll go to Target.

[gateley]

16. I was rich once, and I actually preferred the Goodwill/Salvation Army

and consignment store offerings. Much more character.

[blondeatlast]

18. There's a good deal of my home that's from there; certainly my college

wardrobe was!

[JuniperLea]

19. When I was a teen I wouldn't be caught dead in designer anything

And if I could get something "wicked" at the Goodwill, all the better! I bought a bunch of silk Hawaiian and Californian surf shirts there... with shell and wood buttons... they ruled! I bought a Chanel suit for $20 and "punked it up" for a laugh... and actually started a trend at my high school!

I was totally anti-establishement... can you tell? LOL!

[gateley]

29. I love that you punked up the Chanel suit! Cindy McC would collapse in tears at the thought. nt

[gateley]

17. Okay - then we won't tell her how to PM! :-) nt

[LiberalHeart]

21. Oh great. Now you two are gonna talk behind my back. n/t

[gateley]

25. ...

:rofl: :pals:

[blondeatlast]

27. Nah, I'd rather talk behind Sanctimonious Sarah's back--so we can do that right here!

:rofl:

[LiberalHeart]

4. I just checked the evil website. The interview is tonight at 9 Eastern.

[gateley]

20. Don't have cable, so if they don't stream it, I'm sure it will be on YouTube

or somebody here will post it.

By then, I'll have read the reviews here, and know whether or not I'll be able to stomach watching it. You'll be my tasters, in a sense. ;7

[Duke Newcombe]

22. I have the transcript right here...

Hannity: Governor, it's great to have you here. So, when was it when you first realized how awesome you were?

Caribou Barbie: Blah blah blah blah I won't blink blah blah blah moose blah blah.

[LiberalHeart]

26. But this is the official transcript...

Hannity: "I think you're the greatest thing to come down the GOP pike in centuries."

Palin: "In what respect, Ham-it-ty?"

[sandnsea]

6. Obama's going to be in Las Vegas today

He has a new 2 minute ad out. Lilly Ledbetter endorsed Obama today, at a roundtable discussion with Michelle in Richmond.

Has to be something to talk about besides Pork Barrel.

[marmar]

7. Umm, people in the "Rust Belt" get stylish hairdos too....I'm in Michigan, I can assure you of that.

Not only is it a petty point, it's false stereotyping.

[LiberalHeart]

10. I'm not insulting Michigan. I live near the Ohio/MI line, another rust belt state.

My point isn't that people in these states don't get nice hairdos. It's that, politically, I think Palin's appeal is lessened the slicker she gets. I think the less fussed-over she appears, the better -- in states facing what our states are facing.

[zbdent]

8. bet you won't get a news story about how much her hair do cost ...

[medicswife]

11. Actually, I noticed that too and thought the same danged thing. nt

[blondeatlast]

13. I just saw a pic on another thread; some definite glamming up. nt

[Cha]

23. Lot's more lipstick. And the lies

just keep spillin' out.

[hamsterjill]

24. Absolutely some glamming up!

They must've thought that Tina Fey was prettier during her impersonation!!!

To me, it looks like Palin's hair has received some subtle highlighting. And something is up with those eyebrows.

And yes, I know, we should stick to the issues that matter, but this woman infuriates me on all fronts. Her voice and her appearance being only a fraction of what I do not like about her.

[LiberalHeart]

28. When they show a shot of the back of her head, note the blending. Nice haircut.

[PsN2Wind]

14. Hey, If knowing that Cindy McCains earrings

probably are worth more than their house doesn't bother them why should a hairdo?

[nc4bo]

15. Pfft...lipstick on a pig & all that.

Funny how Corpmedia isn't smearing Palin's repackaging/reimaging/remarketing like the did with our Michelle.

turds.

[EC]

30. No it won't

They love Cindy in her designer cloths and well-tended, finished appearance, they'll love her too...
