SARAH PALIN STARTING TO EMULATE HILLARY CLINTON; BILL DOWN
November 12 2010
Rhinebeck, NY – Politics has always been a man’s game. From pretty much the beginning of governments, the world has always been ruled by men, even if a woman was front and centre. While there have certainly been great female leaders – 
Cleopatra, Mary, Queen of Scots – there have always been men behind them, making things happen, both good and bad. That atmosphere has changed in recent decades but women still have a tough time in politic, a situation unlikely to change anytime soon.
In 2008 that paradigm was almost turned on its head. The near ascendance of Hillary Clinton to the highest political office in the world could have, likely would have, changed the face of women in politics forever. That of course did not happen and, although a different barrier was broken, that failure could very well have set women back even further. Now with few women on the popular political scene, and the one most popular little more than a punch line, the face of women in politics has rarely been bleaker. Things might change however and the popularity of that one person, Sarah Palin, may yet change politics in the long term. Palin, apparently recognizing the opportunity and the weaknesses, has started to emulate the most successful woman in American politics, exciting her populace and apparently former President Clinton.
“Sarah, at least in private chambers, really does admire Hillary. She doesn’t agree with her liberal ways or her devil may care attitude but she respects the fact that she did so well in politics and represents women so well. She really does like her personally and she would like to have the kind of respect and affection that she enjoys,” said a Palin insider. “You’ll notice that she has started to dress a little differently in recent months and she’s lost a few of her little speech things. That’s deliberate, she’s really starting to act more like Hillary in hopes of gaining some of her mojo.”
Palin has also started to court some of Clinton’s most ardent supporters.
“This isn’t just politicking though. She has started to dress more like Hillary in private as well and started to do her hair in a similar way. She still wants to be herself of course but she really wants some of what Hillary has and she feels the best path to that is through emulation,” 
continued the insider. “She hasn’t met Bill yet but she knows that she could get him interested. I mean she’s a happily married woman and all but she feels like if she could appeal to Bill than she must have something of what Hillary has and hopes that could translate to some popular appeal. She doesn’t feel like it will be a major problem getting him interested, she’s very confident in her looks and she thinks Bill will like what he sees.”
Bill Clinton hasn’t been asked about the possibility but it’s deemed likely he would be interested in Palin.
“Unfortunately women are still judged very much by their looks no matter what field they happen to work in. Politics is very much a face game like any other and both Palin and Clinton have discovered that the hard way. It wasn’t that Obama was a better politician or a better potential leader. It’s that he was a man. That’s a sad but honest truth,” said Scrape TV Political analyst Gabriel Kinsey. “I think she could certainly do well in trying to appeal to some of Clinton’s supporters. She gained a lot of support from women and that could, quite natively, translate over to Palin. As far as Bill goes, I’m sure she will have his total support despite his liberalism.”
Palin has apparently been hoarding pantsuits from all over Alaska in recent months.
