Just kill me


Bangor news anchor evidently resembles America's Top High-Office Model finalist

Palin, Maine TV anchor look-alike get national attention
By Emily Burnham - BDN Staff - Saturday Sept. 20, 2008
Move over, Tina Fey: there’s a new Sarah Palin look-alike and she’s from Bangor.

Cindy Michaels, an anchor, reporter and producer for WVII ABC-7/Fox 22, has received both praise and flak for her striking resemblance to Palin, the Republican vice presidential candidate. Michaels has long brown hair that she sometimes wears up in a style similar to Palin’s ...
I have no additional comment on the BDN story, except that you can start bludgeoning me NOW!

About a week ago, the Wall Street Journal had a story, "As Palin Exhibits Her Sense of Style, Fashion Firms Rush to Cash In."

It said Palin's "personal style has sparked a buying frenzy." The makers of Palin's Naughty Monkey peep-toe, 3-1/2-inch-heeled clubbing shoes that she likes to wear to important events--also worn by Paris Hilton--have apparently been swamped with orders.

Naturally, the narrative is about Obama's "celebrity" negatives. Again, just shoot me.
