Governor Palin seen here modeling her new line of cougar-sexy lipstick in person.
Cleveland, OH. – Alaska Governor and GOP VP candidate Sarah Palin today announced her plan to sell a "Sarah Barracuda" line of lipstick. Gathered at a Cleveland hotel, with John McCain at her side with a glowing smile of school boy with a crush, Mrs. Palin told reporters of her plans to start selling a full line of lip gloss.
Hoping to capitalize on a wave of popularity, fresh after her speech at the republican convention two weeks ago in which she told GOP faithful that the "Difference between a hockey mom and a pit pull is lipstick." Mrs. Palin hopes to have her lipstick line in retail stores by November 4, kicking off both a post presidential election celebration for John McCain and herself and also in time for the holiday shopping season at the same time.
In the mean time Mrs. Palin will be passing out free samples at campaign stops across the country.
Funded by a wealthy GOP business man whom she met at the convention last week, Ms. Palin's lipstick company will be based in Wasilla, Alaska and will feature her hand-picked favorite lipstick colors. According to Ms. Palin, her lipstick will be me made by regular, hard working, rural folks like herself and sold to hockey moms and rural women across the county and in Canada.
Though her distribution channel has not been finalized yet, Ms. Palin envisions her lipstick being sold at the likes of Wal-Mart and Fleet and Farms. Ms. Palin told reporters that she would like to have "Sara Barracuda" lipstick counters placed in Wal-Mart* near the gun department so that progressive woman like herself could easily shop for both lipstick and ammunition for their guns at the same time.
The flagship "Sarah Barracuda" lipstick will be a sexy maroon-colored lipstick. Ms. Palin told reporters that "Rural woman interviewing for jobs will absolutely love this Maroon lipstick. Wearing it will give each one of them the confidence to obtain new positions they never could have imagined or even qualified for in the past."
Reportedly, Ms. Palin was wearing a Maroon lipstick when she interviewed with John McCain for thirty minutes before being selected as Mr. McCain’s running mate. It has been widely imagined that Mr. McCain told Ms. Palin after that interview "I think the United States can use a woman like you" as he exited her office zipping up his pants.
Ms. Palin also is positioning her "Sarah Barracuda" line of lipsticks for use by "Hockey Moms" across the country. Ms. Palin told reporters that armed with her sassy red lipstick, "Hockey Moms" in both red states and blue states will see their sons finding more ice time with the first string once the coach catches a glimpse of mom’s "Sara Barracuda" lips.
"As a matter of fact" Ms. Palin continued, "Women, if you really want to drill for some oil, my 'Sarah Barracuda Red' is a must. It's guaranteed to help you bring home your catch!"
