Sarah Palin as a Fox News contributor would be awesome

RUMOR: Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin will move out of Alaska and take up in Rhode Island with $7 million from her book. According to the Anchorage Daily News, Palin would make the move to facilitate a contract with Fox News.

Pretending that these claims have any credibility for a moment: It would be awesome for one reason…

Not because she might finally appear on The O’Reilly Factor and face some genuinely tough questions instead of the bullshit “tough” questions like “what do you think about the Bush doctrine, which was never a stated doctrine, isn’t written anywhere, isn’t agreed upon by a plurality, and isn’t a Bush-specific policy at all?” and definitely not because we would be treated to more insufferable “you’re a great American” bullshit “interviewing” by Sean Hannity. Geraldine Ferraro Pictures, Images and PhotosNo no children.

The one thing that shows potential for awesome with a Palin-Fox News partnership by way of branding is this: Geraldine Ferraro is a Fox News analyst.

Gera-Who-Ferra? Geraldine Ferraro is a liberal political analyst for FNC and also the only other women to be on a national presidential voting ticket when she ran as vice president against then VP George H.W. Bush in 1984 (Reagan/Bush vs Mondale Ferraro).

If Palin actually moved to the lower 48 to appear in-studio on Fox News shows as an analyst, it would be irresistible to pair her with Ferraro and make some really interesting tv.

2 female vice presidential nominees – the ONLY two – one Democrat, one Republican, both chosen by their parties nominee at the time as a gimmick to rally interest and support for an uphill election, both unsuccessful — here, now, giving their opposing takes on the current political climate.

Would you tune in to watch?

And really, the whole rumor isn’t far fetched at all. You can’t effectively do anything from way up in BFE-Alaska so the move makes perfect sense since Rhode Island is pretty Alaskan-like in a lot of ways, and we know the Gov is a big fan of her home state. The other claim that she will never run for politics again is true. I’m confirming it now, so everyone can just STFU about all the speculating. She’s done. deal with it.

UPDATE: Sarah Palin did indeed become a Fox News analyst but the match-up with Geraldine unfortunately never happened to my knowledge.
