As the Villages go, so goes Florida - Politico: "Palin draws largest crowd yet for GOP." About 25,000 according to one fire marshal, 60,000 by another's guess. As fate would have it, I'm currently reading a book about the Villages and its strange culture of retirees in golf carts and deed restrictions forbidding lawn ornaments.

Holy Hannah, the GOP advantage in Sumter County, Florida is going to be HUGELY important if the voting is exactly like 2000 again.

2004, or 1996, or 1992, or every election since 1876... not so much.

Sarah Barracuda is Sarah Incognito.

What a trajectory. From the fresh new face of the party, to making stealth appearances for diehard GOP voters, and in just 3+ weeks. She's making Rick Santorum look like the grand old man of American politics.

Anyway, she'll be good for VH1's "I Love the 2000s."
