Sarah Palin Proposes Gambling to President Obama
ANCHORAGE, ALASKA --
John McCain's stretch for Vice -Presidential running mate has found a niche in the news,and the previous unknown won't go away. Sarah Palin once again ended up in the headlines today, as she continues to use gambling terminology while trying to stay relevant.
"I betcha I'd have more endurance," the governor of Alaska told Runner's World about a theoretical foot race against Barack Obama. Palin obviously did not draw a parallel to political races, as her performance last fall was more of a sudden, sprinter's burst to the McCain campaign, followed by weeks of imitating dead weight.
Palin's constituency is largely the most conservative aspects of the Republican Party, and Alaska has been noted for drawing a hard line against casino gambling, so gaming analysts have remarked on how strange that her everyday language, and especially her signature catch phrase "you betcha," are so gambling-oriented.
Palin tells the magazine that, even though she was a star basketball player, the President's height makes her feel she'd be better running against him. She says she's a regular runner, and feels "crappy" if she misses her routine.
Palin notes that she listens to a variety of music while she runs, including AC/DC and Van Halen, making readers wonder what songs she likes. The bet here is: Hot for Teacher.
