I posted a diary earlier this week saying Palin was Bush in Lipstick. I like the latest memo of saying Palin will get along great in Washington - cause she's acted just like any other politician.
It wasn't enough for McCain to adopt all of Bush's Policies he had to have someone on the ticket that was "George Bush in Lipstick".
Creationist, governor with "executive" experience, abuse of power, barely traveled outside the U.S. etc...

A core Democratic talking point against Sarah Palin is beginning to take shape: she is, critics say, the female counterpart of the current President of the United States, not only in terms of policy and social conservatism, but even personality."She's not a pitbull in lipstick," said one female Democratic operative, referencing a line from Palin's convention speech. "She's George Bush in lipstick."
From her hard-right stances on abortion and contraception and the deep affection she engenders from conservative evangelical leaders, to her involvement in a possible "abuse of power" scandal in Alaska and even her charming demeanor, some see in Palin the second coming of the 43rd president.
...
Obama himself made the Palin-Bush comparison during his Sunday appearance on ABC's This Week, calling her "somebody who may be even more aligned with George Bush - or Dick Cheney, or the politics we've seen over the last eight years - than John McCain himself is."
