The curtain falls for Alaska's maverick

With her ironed outfit three shades darker than her tear-filled light blue eyes, Palin walked on and off the stage in Arizona almost just as quick as she appeared on the Presidential scene. The future for Obama seems bright and difficult - yet attainable. Predicting his future seems senseless, since we will be lucky enough to live through it. Is it back to mooses and Carharts for Palin? Has this election made her a staple in politics? Will the country send paparazzi to Trigs first day at school, wondering "Aw! How will he do? Is he feeling better?" Will Bristol's delivery be front page news next to foreign affairs?

Though my anxiety to see the progression of our country is beyond measure, my interest is growing on whether Palin coverage will move from the Daily News to Star Magazine. Her persona has become so sensationalized, that beauty queens everywhere may be ready to take control over more things than their 10 minute talent portion. Creationism now has a pretty face. We won't forget it, as the curtain call on her performance was at 11PM last night, Election Day- no encores.
