What percentage of Americans do you figure has ever eaten moose meat or killed a moose?
I don't know but suddenly moose-ness is a key component of the life of Sarah Palin.
The GOP convention can’t get enough of the moose references. A little video about Sarah Palin a few minutes ago shed no new light on the vice presidential nominee, but it was rich in moose talk. The movie-voice narrator extolled the virtues of Palin as a moose-hunter, mother and maverick.
Lots of photos of the photogenic Sarah as a child and adult – but none as a beauty queen. Swelling movie music. The cozy little house on the Alaska snowfields.
She awoke at 3 a.m. as a girl to join her dad on pre-dawn moose hunts. Applause.
After the narrator calls her a “self-made giant,” the video ends with a photo of McCain and Palin, superimposed on a nature shot. A rainbow is over her head.
