No forget-me-nots for vanquished VP hopeful Sarah Palin
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin attended her state's 50th anniversary ball wearing a rather dated ornament: a wrist corsage.
Heck, she didn't even wear one of those ancient accessories to her original high school prom.
Here's Sarah wearing a pink portrait jacket, a black skirt and a white wrist corsage in the stellar company of several past Alaska governors.
What kind of flower could it be? A gardenia? Is it a white rose? What do you think?
All we know for sure is that isn't Alaska's state flower, the forget-me-not. Which would have actually been pretty cool and downright metaphoric.
Anyway, let's hope Sarah doesn't create a run on wrist corsages the way she sparked Naughty Monkey heels, beehive hairdos and rimless glasses.
In Miami recently, Sarah kicked back at a hotel pool unlaxing after that tough talking campaign. Just remember, she wasn't doing that "for naught."
Check out the poolside pix here. What do you think of her fetching pool outfit?

How would you spend Sarah Palin's $150 grand?






I'm not sure, but I think corsages at things like that might be a traditional thing in Alaska. She and her family wore corsages that a local person had made at her swearing in ceremony too. Or maybe somebody made one for her, and she was just being gracious by wearing it.
How old are you? They didn't have wrist corsage when she was in high school. Girls just starting wearing them about 7 or 8 years ago. But nice try.
This is apply named the dish RAG. What a joke. You are "reporting" on Palin's wrist corsage. Really? How desperate can you be...
Stick with what you know, whatever that is.
wow...the nasty mean spirited leftest media just can't stop....I would wear a wrist corsage ....... and i think you should spend more time looking in your own mirror instead of gazing at Sarah Palin...I know she is amazing and she draws attention but you are WAY TOO OBSESSED...MAYBE EVEN KINDA STALKISH
That looks like a Star Trek outfit. She looked a lot better when someone else was dressing her and buying her clothes.
The best thing about Sarah Palin? She exposed all the morons in the U.S. press to people around the globe.
And that would include morons like the green-eyed-jealous Elizabeth Snead.
Who cares about a stupid flower and yes young girls have been wearing them again for the last eight years or so.
But thanks for the link to Her poolside pix's, she's so very HOT and you're not.
