*She* didn't write it.  She hired a ghost writer.  Palin is the most inerudite

Melville, Pascal Bcuk are.

Can I interest you in a nice bridge?  Not only did she demand the wardrobe.  The
RNC actually had to send someone up to Alaska to retrieve some of the purloined
clothes.  I'd be surprised if that idiot didn't steal towels from her hotel
bathrooms.

I suspect she would have done that even without Katie Couric.  I found the whole
