I hear ya. I have contemplated going as Sarah Palin for Halloween. Except that I’m blonde, I could do my hair - with bangs - the way she does, wear a suit, and with my eyeglasses I could really pass for her. Throw in a couple of bouts of "pageant walkin’ " and a few “you betchas” and I’d have people rolling on the floor I’m sure.
I’m not going to do this though, because I don’t want people, even jokingly, referring to me as Sarah Palin later on or commenting about how my glasses or my hair DO look like hers. Darth Vader, an IRS auditor, Satan, a zombie - those are all fine costumes for me. Not SP.
