Sarah Palin, you’ve got it goin’ on.

John McCain shook up the political world today choosing Alaska Governor Sarah Palin for Republican vice-presidential candidate. But I’ve got to look at this from a fashion/beauty perspective.

No doubt most red-blooded American males are welcoming her entry into the national political arena (she’s got it going on).

But her hair is making Dominican stylists across the country salivate; it’s a cross between Marge Simpson and Megan Mullally, “Honey, what’s going on with your hair? Looks like you got mousse and squirrel in there.” 

As my stylist would say, she needs “un buen blowel.” But I guess when you’re out in the Alaska wilderness fishing, hunting and eating mooseburgers, hair products are the least of your worries.

You’re got to give McCain some credit because he sure knows how to pick em’. His former wife is a swimsuit model, his current wife is real easy on the eyes, and Palin was runner-up in the Miss Alaska beauty contestant (1984). I think it’s time for me to cancel my membership in the sisterhood of the traveling pantsuits. I feel a girl crush coming on.

My colleagues are comparing Palins’ look to actors Tina Fey, Julia Louise Dreyfus and Mariska Hargitay?

We want to know what you think.
