Turkey slaughtered in Palin's presence fetches $225 in auction
It may be the most famous turkey of this year's Thanksgiving season, and bidders proved they were willing to pay top dollar. No, not the bird who received a presidential pardon at the White House -- this pricey fowl is dead.

A bidder on eBay has paid $225 for the Alaska turkey who was slaughtered on camera as Gov. Sarah Palin gave one of her first televised interviews since her failed run for vice president.

Some are predicting that Palin will become the next face of the Republican Party, perhaps hoping she'll have the same effect on the GOP's value as she did on the turkey's selling price, if not it's life.

The Triple D Farm sold the turkey to a single bidder on eBay, attempting to cash in on its fame while defending itself from the negative publicity Palin's interview spurred.

2. Slaughtered turkey---$225....
Stuffing and mashed potatoes to complement the slaughtered turkey--$12.50...

The larger-than-life, oblivious, stupidity cloud that surrounds Sarah Palin everywhere she goes: *Priceless*
