Pepsi Pepper Palin



I'm surprised that no soft drink manufacturer has recruited Sarah Palin to plug their product, due to her huge advocacy of the industry. During an October big ticket fund raiser in Naples, she declared, "We will win Florida. I'll betcha a Pepsi!" Unfortunately she now owes those $10,000 a plate attendees a Pepsi but what a wonderful promotion of the product. Last week I watched on network television as yet another interviewer grilled her mercilessly over the campaign wardrobe expenditures. She exclaimed, "I never asked for anything from the campaign other than maybe a Diet Dr. Pepper!" for another great large audience plug.

I hope that we will soon see commercials of Ms. Palin promoting one of these products much as Bob Dole advertised for Viagra after his election loss. Hopefully Pepsi-Cola Co. and Dr. Pepper Co. are now in a bidding war to receive her endorsement. Unless of course, Budweiser is seeking her support for their "Joe 6-Pack" campaign. Good luck Sarah! I hope you make millions!
