WASHINGTON (AP) - Sarah Palin poked fun at herself in a speech to journalists Saturday night, drawing laughter when she announced she "came down from my hotel room and I could see the Russian embassy."
The 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate also joked that she had orginally thought of titling her book "How To Look Like a Million Bucks, or Only $150,000" before settling on "Going Rogue." In one of the controversies surrounding her candidacy, the campaign spent about $150,000 on her wardrobe.
Palin was the Republican speaker at the winter dinner of the Gridiron Club, an organization of Washington-based journalists.
Rep Barney Frank, D-Mass., represented the Democrats.
Palin targeted her hosts, Democrats and Sen. John McCain's campaign staff, as well as herself.
If the election had turned out differently, she said, "I could be the one overseeing the signing of bailout checks and vice president Biden could be on the road selling his book, 'Going Rogaine.'" Biden has sparse hair.
The crack about seeing the Russian embassy from her hotel referred to Palin having told an interviewer during last year's campaign that her qualifications for high office included that "you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska."
As for her hosts, she said she was glad to be appearing before an elite audience of leading intellectuals, "or as I like to call it, a death panel."
McCain's campaign staff also came in for a barb from the former Alaska governor when she said she is touring the country by bus as she sells her book.
"The view is so much better from inside the bus than under it," she said, referring to the poisonous relations between her and some of the McCain campaign staff. More here:
Um ... yes ... just one time, please. LMAO @ the hammer on "Plugs" Biden -- "Going Rogaine."
Don't you love how the lefties all take solace amongst themselves by hating her. They call her stupid all the time ... I guess they're convincing themselves.
You know what they remind me of? It's the same thing racists do. If they think there might be other racists in their group, one of them will use the word "nigger" ... just to gauge the reaction of those around him. Then, if there are other like-minded people around him, they all start bonding and congratulating each other on their shared hatred. Way to go, genius lefties.

Did Lynn Vincent write Mrs. Palin's jokes as well as her book?
And why wouldn't Mrs. Palin be comfortable among reporters? She has a degree in journalism. Of course, she had to go to five of America's finest backwater colleges to get it. She also worked as a newspaper and video sports reporter.
But seriously, folks, Sarah Palin's bus tour is really taking off.

I do believe I will vote for her as I stand today
Wow. Mike Licht sure showed us how stupid Palin is. I'm convinced. We should continue letting the genius republicans and democraps run the country. They're doing such a good job.
Oh, and as far as having a ghost writer ... is that bad? I'm not sure she did but at least she didn't choose a terrorist like Bill Ayers to write it.
