Biography
Alaskan governor and Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin was born on February 11, 1964 in Sandpoint, Idaho. Her family moved to Alaska when she was a baby. Sarah was a star point guard in high school, leading her team to the state title and earning the nickname "Sarah Barracuda." In 1984, she was the runner-up in the Miss Alaska Pageant.

After earning her degree from the University of Idaho in Communications and Journalism, Sarah became a sports reporter. She married her high school sweetheart and has five children. Her political career began as a city council member in Wasilla. After serving as the mayor of Wasilla for several years, Palin was elected governor of Alaska in 2006, defeating the incumbent in the primary. She is currently under investigation for firing a state official that wouldn't fire her ex-brother-in-law.

Sarah's political image as a reformer and strong social conservative led John McCain to select her as his running mate for the upcoming presidential election. Palin is the first female Republican vice presidential nominee, and only the second woman to be put on a national ticket in history.

Julianne Moore is playing Sarah Palin in a movie, or as Sarah Palin would put it, ‘capitalizing on pretending to be me.’ You know, the same way Matthew Broderick capitalized on pretending to be Ferris Bueller.

Anyway, the upcoming movie, Game Change just released another official trailer, and this time, it fully showcases Moore’s talent in the film. Politics aside, this movie has an awesome cast, including Julianne, but also with Ed Harris and Woody Harrelson.

First of all, the trailer starts off with a Jimi Hendrix song, so you’re already like, “Woah-oh, I know this song. Let me pay attention…”

With everything going on in the world, sometimes it's important to stop and ask yourself one important, crucial question: If you could cheat on your wife with any celeb who would it be?!

An extra-marital dating site asked 25,000 of their perverted subscribers that same question, and Katy Perry and Rihanna came in at the top. Yet another thing these musical BFFs have in common! Married men desperately want to have sex with them.

Kim Kardashian, who was number 2 last year, fell to number 9

Just when I erased the memory of Sarah Palin from the few remaining brain cells I have that are reserved for politics, Julianne Moore brings it all back.

Moore stars in the upcoming flick Game Change, which is based on the book. Ed Harris also stars in the movie, playing John McCain, and Woody Harrelson plays McCain’s campaign manager. The movie focuses on the 2008 Obama/McCain presidential race.

“None of these middle aged white guys are game changers,” Harrelson says in the trailer.“So find me a woman,” Harris responds, revealing that McCain’s team pulled a Kardashian and basically cast Sarah Palin ala Kris Humphries.

So many things happening in this sentence. Okay, just two. But they’re both pretty awesome. Listen, I’m not a fan of the Palins, but this story made me have a little respect for Bristol Palin.

After hanging onto a mechanical bull for dear life at West Hollywood’s Saddle Ranch, the crowd cheered her on before she eventually fell off. Bristol Palin riding a mechanical bull would’ve been enough of a story, but that’s just the beginning.

After she gets bucked off, someone in the crowd yells, “Did you ride Levi like that?” which was a pretty bold thing to say, but not as bold as the follow up comment: “You’re mother is a whore!”

I’ve never seen a political fight in a bar. It got pretty ugly and trashy. Imagine ‘The O’Reilly Factor’ with a mechanical bull.

Levi Johnston, stop being gross. If there's not enough drama going on with these people, Briston Palin’s babby daddy is now claiming Sarah Palin had a crush on him.

In an E! News interview, Johnston claims that Palin flirted with him when he was a teenager.

"When I was growing up, some of my friends were like [Sarah Palin's behavior towards you] seems kinda weird," he said. "They were like, 'I think she likes you.'"

Levi is writing a tell-all book, Deer in the Headlines: My Life in Sarah Palin’s Crosshairs. Really, he fancies himself a dear?

Self-proclaimed "Obama groupie" Wyclef Jean has revealed that he's a fan of Sarah Palin. Yes, Sarah Palin. The same woman who blames her stupidity on "gotcha" questions. By "gotcha" questions she means questions that are set up to make her look unintelligent. You know, like, "How are you?" and "What's on your mind?"

The former Fugees singer once sat in freezing cold January morning weather to watch President Obama get sworn into office.

"I know it's gonna be dirt cold," Jean said at the time. "On camera, it's going to look like I have one coat on, but I'mma have 17 sweaters under that, 'cause there's nobody takin' my seat!"
The Lamestream media is at it again, asking her “gotcha” questions like, “how’s it going?” and daring to investigate her abuse of authority.

24,000 of Sarah Palin’s emails that were written during her term as governor were released today. Investigators made the request in 2008, when Palin was recruited as John McCain’s running mate. She was alleged to have abused her authority, violating state ethics rules by allowing her husband to wield governmental powers.

Palin says she’s not worried about the emails:
Julianne Moore is going rogue. For HBO's movie, Game Change, Moore is taking on the role of everyone's favorite Mama Grizzly, Sarah Palin.

The movie chronicles the 2008 presidential campaign, focusing on John McCain's controversial pick of Sarah Palin as his running mate. Bristol Palin will also be a character in the movie, played by actress Melissa Faman. Ed Harris plays the part of John McCain, though casting should've really picked someone older to make things more accurate.

Levi Johnston is the gift that keeps on giving. First he knocked up Bristol Palin, shamed the Palin's by posing nude in Playgirl and now he's inked a deal for a tell all about the famous family.

Sarah is gosh darn it-ing all over this one.

His story will be revealed in Deer in the Headlights: My Life in Sarah Palin's Crosshairs, to be released this fall by Touchstone Publishing.

"I want to tell the truth about my close relationship with the Palins," the d-bag said in a statement released by his publisher. "My sense of Sarah and my perplexing fall from grace – how I feel and what I've learned."

He added, "I'm doing this for me, for my boy Tripp and for the country."

I love how he threw his son's name in there as if he's really a dad. He hasn't seen his kid in months.
What do Sarah Palin and Julianne Moore have in common? Probably nothing but the fact that Julianne is going to play Palin in HBO Films' upcoming adaptation of the best seller "Game Change."

I wonder if Julianne is going to start-seeing Russia from her house after playing Palin. Cheesy, I know!

According to The Wrap, Julianne will play Palin in the story that will give a behind the scenes look of what really went down during the 2008 presidential elections.

I don’t see the Moore/Palin resemblance, but she’s such a great actress that she can morph herself and play any role. I bet Sarah Palin is upset that they didn’t give her the part to play herself.
