You know you've arrived when Larry Flynt makes a porno inspired by you. And that's the case for Sarah Palin who will soon have an X-rated movie released inspired by her. And how could she not? The VP candidate has the look of a tarty librarian and the hair of a porn siren, she's got all the right ingredients for porno magic.

This can't possibly hurt the candidate's chances for winning the erection, I mean the election, she's got the vote nailed -no pun intended- with the horny, beer-drinking, rifle-slinging, average Joes. John McCain couldn't have made a wiser choice for VP when he chose Mrs.Palin as his running mate. He knows the scoop: sex sells, and Palin is the poster child, wet-dream for middle aged, trailer-park-dwelling types who love eighties up-dos and women with guns in high heels.

Palin does an excellent job, in real life at appealing to lower denominator of American constituents already, so will this porn movie help to elevate her even more? It seems that this woman is immune to bad publicity. Even her train wreck of an interview with Katie Couric hasn't had the repercussions it ought to have. And the SNL spoofing hasn't appeared to have any real impact in how the media treats her. If anything the lines of reality have so been blurred that at times it's hard to tell the difference between the real Palin and Tina Fey. And now the porno, which will no doubt be a hit, despite bad acting and cheap production could propel Palin into a whole different ballpark. Will American male voters make the distinction between the governor of Alaska and the porn star playing her? And do we need a Vice President who could inspire such trash?

This is surrealism at it's purest. I can't wait to see the movie, and I can't wait for the elections. As the elections get nearer we have to ponder what kind of a society we have here: A sex-driven, woman-objectifying, pandering soceity that uses women's sexuality to bring forth it's own chauvinist agenda (i.e. the GOP and Larry Flynt).
