Who does Palin remind you of?
I saw a post just now saying that she reminded someone of a former boss of theirs. For me, she reminds me of Mrs. Carmody from The Mist and Dolores Umbridge from Harry Potter. What about you?

1. Lorraine Swanson from Mad TV...

She's totally Lorraine. You can see it seep out when she's not being vigilant.

48. As long as we're comparing Palin to bitchy teachers
she also somehow reminds me of Ms. Kittewell from Child's Play 2

14. She reminds me of the character Nicole Kidman played in "To Die For".
The story is different, and I don't care about the story, but the character is the same.

She's ambitious, blithely unaware of how unqualified she is for the glorification she imagines she deserves.

Short of outright murder, she uses people to get what she wants.

17. Every worman who has clawed, lied or bullied her way to the top...
Left carnage in her wake, and made it harder for all the other women that have worked so hard and fought the good old boy network the the right, honest way, but get painted with the same broad brush that defines her.

I'll admit that I think she is a very sexy woman, but I wont be voting for her. And if she was on the democratic ticket every man in here would be thinking the same way and all the women would be all for her.

19. George Wallace
She appeals to people with an inferiority complex by telling them that they are really superior to "pointy headed liberals," as Wallace used to call those people who are smart, hard-working, honest, and caring.

22. a woman in the complex I work at,
she's got the same voice and today she told me that 4 street lites were out for at least two weeks. I told her she reminded me of an ex wife that never asked for anything, but only demanded everything. We didn't speak the rest of the day. BTW, I don't have an ex wife, been married 38 years to the same.

24. STEPHNIE WEIR!!! OF MADTV!!!
It was driving me crazy but TwoSparkles triggered the image (not Lorraine Swanson but Stephnie Weir) for me. Thanks!

She shows up here at around 2:16. She's the blonde Christian romance novelist.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fozdzm1yBR4

Here she is at imdb.
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0918633/

And here. She's on the right.

27. She reminds me of the religious kooks who knock on my door with brochures
Edited on Tue Sep-09-08 05:47 PM by aint_no_life_nowhere
She may have nice regular facial features, but she has a kind of faraway brainwashed look to me, like she's functioning but it's on auto pilot. She looks stiff and starched, like some kind of cultist lady.

I keep waiting for her to say: "may you know the joy of Landru."
