When I went to see Sarah Palin on Sunday we were fooled.
About two hours before Sarah was to show up, a Sarah Palin lookalike walked right past us and was escorted thru the barrier to go into the Market Square. She was dressed like Sarah. She had her hair done up like Sarah and with those glasses she was a dead ringer for Sarah.
So we all got excited. As we watched this imposter walk up towards the crowd who had their backs to her because they were facing the podium, we started talking a mile a minute. The Sarah wannabe had a cell phone pressed to her ear as she came thru the gate waving to us and speaking and smiling at the same time. We were leaning on the fencing that separated those inside from those on the outside. Some were convinced it was her.
As those around me buzzed I intently watched this woman slip into the crowd in front of us. I didn't notice any unusual commotion going on or any rushing to and fro trying to get a glimpse of her so I decided the whole thing was a fake. I guess I had my skeptic radar on. But some were not so convinced. It took them quite a while to realize this whole thing was part of the plan. About an hour or so later this same Sarah look alike came over to our side once again and was posing for pictures along with another look alike, George Bush. A much younger looking George Bush I might add. The two were posing together as many were snapping away.
I did find out by talking to a few people later on that George Bush did fly in here a week or two ago. He was invited to a private B-B-Q by the first famiy of the Villages. I heard he stayed overnight even. Of course it was all hush hush and not too many knew about this until after the fact.
In Bangor, Maine there is a TV anchor who resembles Sarah Palin, quite a bit. You be the judge. Check her out here:

Anyhow she's now receiving hate mail and nasty phone calls. Care to guess who from?
They say we all have a twin out there. Who do people say you look like?
