You just can’t “makeup” this stuff…

Who was the highest paid individual in Senator John McCain’s presidential campaign during the first half of October as it headed down the homestretch?

Not Randy Scheunemann, Mr. McCain’s chief foreign policy adviser; not Nicolle Wallace, his senior communications staffer. It was Amy Strozzi, who was identified by the Washington Post this week as Gov. Sarah Palin’s traveling makeup artist, according to a new filing with the Federal Election Commission on Thursday night.

Ms. Strozzi, who was nominated for an Emmy award for her makeup work on the television show “So You Think You Can Dance?”, was paid $22,800 for the first two weeks of October alone, according to the records. The campaign categorized Ms. Strozzi’s payment as “Personnel Svc/Equipment.”

That Palin chick is hot!

I guess the term “hot” , is extremely subjective. While I don’t find her ugly , I also don’t find her stunning either. She’s more what I call “closing time cute”. The kind of girl you hit on when it’s late , and the pickings are slim.

And then she opens her mouth and you walk away with your fingers in your ears thankful to be spending the night alone.

Actually I think a lot of the makeup artist’s time is spent on McCain.

The kind of girl you hit on when it’s late , and the pickings are slim.

And then spend the rest of your life regretting it because she turns out to be a wacky, psycho head case and stalks you when you don’t call her.

Come on yall,

she’s definitely not a “closing timer”, she’s the girl all the guys run to after they see what all the real closing time girls look like with the lights on. Lets keep it real though. She was the fools gold, the girl that hangs around when the lights come on because she simply, ‘likes to dance’ and stands no chance in hell of giving anything up.

God only knows how bad she really looks with all the foundation and bells and whistles are off her face.
