And they keep coming back! In zombie apocalypse America, some conservatives never fade away.
Sarah Palin, the former star of the TLC show Sarah Palin's America, released a promo for newest television show Amazing America on Thursday. Palin, who also appears regularly on Fox News, appears in silhouette in front of an American flag while electric guitars play in the background. Quotes about her appear on the screen as the camera focuses on her darkened figure. Then, the lights come on and Palin appears fully lit and declares "America prepare to be amazed."
The show will appear on the Sportsman Channel, a ten-year-old cable network that focuses on outdoor pursuits like hunting and fishing and is available in about 32 million households. It premieres on April 3.
I imagine she'll look a little better in her new show than when she quit her Governor's job.
Here's Ed Rollins describing her decision to run away from Alaska's top job.
ED ROLLINS, CNN CONTRIBUTOR: I think yesterday was a disaster, Friday was a disaster for her both in the sense that she was very incoherent in articulating why she was quitting and what she wanted to do with it.
Everybody else climbed up that ladder, and all of the sudden she's on top of the mountain. She didn't like it -- or she did like the top of the mountain. What she didn't like was coming back to Earth, flying back to Alaska to her job as governor. I think the reality here is her biggest mistake is walking away from the job as governor. She would have at least had a record to run on. She is going to have a partial record today that's going to be very incomplete.
I found her very insulting to other governors. We have 22 other Republican governors, 19 of whom are basically going to be out of this office after running in two years. Nine are term limited and many others have to run. And she basically said in the last year you run around and do all kinds of things, and I would predict to you every single Republican governor like most Democratic governors are at their desk trying to figure out how to get through the economic crisis. I think she insulted them. I think to a certain extent it showed a naivete and I think she basically left a big, big void in her resume.
She's a TV personality now even though her shows have failed. At least politics is dead for her as far as that goes.
