I have to admit I’m very stimulated by Sarah Palin’s vice-presidential candidacy! For one thing, this was prophesied many years ago by Bob Dylan in his song "Sara," with its lyrics about "sleeping in the woods" and "her arrow and bow." A video of Dylan in a transcendent performance of the song can be found below. (Pay no attention to the spelling discrepancy between Sara and Sarah.)
Sarah’s nomination has ignited a kind of pseudo-revolutionary fervor in some people, and horror in others. One thing is certain: she is the first American woman running for national office with a true sexual vibe. Progress!
