It seems to me that Sarah Palin, aka the Ju-Know Nothing Pit Bull, is making a fatal error with her latest non-stop self-promotional publicity blitz. Not that I want to give her advice. That's the farthest thing from my mind. But as an observer of the fads and fancies that strike my fellow citizens, I know that such fads and fancies have a short shelf life. Think Pet Rock and Cabbage Patch Kids.
Palin is riding the very last crest of the very last wave of interest and adulation that has been washing over the Republican party for the last two months. But even as that wave was newly breaking, her value as a political curiosity and novelty was ebbing. Actually, the best thing she can do right now is to keep the show going.
In the land of the midnight sun, she of all people should know what the effects of overexposure are.
Trust me. By the time the Repubs start looking around for their next great white hope, Sarah's time in the limelight will have come and gone.
