To further define Sarah Palin, we need a unified nickname.

[Celebration]

Words are important. Symbols are important, and we need to all get together on a cute nickname for Sarah. I'm not so clever with nicknames, but people that are please place your suggestions here. After I have enough I'll post a poll.

Someone called her "Caribou Barbie" which I thought was pretty good. But I honestly feel we need a poll to vote for the best suggestion, and we can then all use it. Perhaps it could spread all over the 'net.

[RB TexLa]

1. Trash?

[Celebration]

5. Well

"Trailer trash" is soooo 90s. I'd like to be more in the 21st century.

[Iris]

124. Caribou trash?

[seemslikeadream]

6. White Dominionist Trash

[Iris]

125. yes - WDT for short!

[Waiting For Everyman]

54. Cruella?

[mwb970]

2. Gidget? /nt

[Alter Ego]

12. I like that one.

I also like "Cindy McCain Mark II".

[MarianJack]

3. Sarah Palin(comparison)

10. This one IS mine

[NashVegas]

15. That's the Kind of Shit That's Going to Explode In Obama's Face

If Dems spread that shit around.

[seemslikeadream]

25. SURE WHATEVER

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

105. But of course, there will be no similar retribution for calling him Osama

"That's just a joke.......can't you take a joke? Har har....."

111. When The Republican Party Has As Many Muslims As the Democratic Party Has Women

Why don't you come back and ask me that one again.

[JaneQPublic]

26. Governor Jesus Camp (nt)

[Celebration]

31. eh, that offends some independents

I'm actually serious about this. It would be good to have some nickname where everyone can chuckle, not just Democrats, not just non-Christians.

[Vanje]

29. I dont know what it means

So, for me, It dosnt work

[seemslikeadream]

39. you call yourself sheep TRAMP and you don't know what it means??

[Vanje]

43. Dont feel too bad

The Obama NewYorker Cover didnt do it for me either

[seemslikeadream]

44. You just keep playing nice

look where it has got us so far

[Vanje]

50. ?

?

[seemslikeadream]

51. ........

[Vanje]

57. It isnt about playing nice

Its about not understanding your reference at all.

MILk?
MilF?

Huh? What?

[seemslikeadream]

71. It is a joke told on Mally, Stephanie Miller, Maher, Rhodes

but I guess you don't listen to Air America?

[Vanje]

79. I dont.

Air America has no stations in Idaho.

[seemslikeadream]

81. It is on the internet

That's where I listen to it

http://airamerica.com/

http://www.novamradio.com/live/stream.php


You don't watch the Daily Show either?

[Vanje]

85. No cable. Dial-up only. Its RURAL out here!

You've posted five or six responses and I still dont get your joke.
But no doubt, if I had cable, and time to watch it while streaming radio shows all day long, I'd be Paralyzed with laughter.

[seemslikeadream]

88. I podcast and listen while I AM working

and someone did explain it to you down thread, awhile ago, post 41

[Vanje]

91. Alright then, Thanks

I though VPILTF was someone elses nickname suggestion.
I thought your suggestion had something to do with MILk or milf, or something.


VPILTF
Hmmm. well okay then.
While not actually incapactitated with laughter, I DID actually chuckle for a second.


Podcast?!?!
You think a luddite with no cable and the slowest dial-up on earth has an I-Pod? Ha!

[ColbertWatcher]

130. Whenever someone posts something you don't understand ...

... there are two places you can go for answers:

1) the Acronym finder, find out what any acronym, abbreviation, or initialism stands for

2) the Urban Dictionary, which might not be safe for some workplaces!

[Vanje]

155. VPILF not listed in either reference

So now I dont feel so bad.

Guess I'm not the only one who is out of touch with the leading edge of popular culture.

[ColbertWatcher]

156. I'm shocked they haven't been created yet!

Wow. Usually, the internets is ahead of everyone, not behind!

[NashVegas]

117. Thank You For Changing That

It's been reproduced in the edited form.

[eowyn_of_rohan]

141. that's tacky, slad

yuck

[Vanje]

28. I dont know what it means

Sorry

[Occam Bandage]

41. Vice President I'd Like to Fuck.

[undeterred]

103. Sexist

and doesn't apply to everyone.

[Vanje]

109. Here here!

I would not like to fuck her.

[undeterred]

112. Me neither.

Not in a box.
Not with a fox.
Not in a house.
Not with a mouse.

[Iris]

127. well no one said Cheney was excluded. I don't think it was VPIMLF - for "most like to"

just that the person would like to fuck a vp...could be any vp, right?

[NashVegas]

9. I've Been Referring to Her as "Hurricane Sarah" At Work

bit of a disaster, don't you think?

[Celebration]

16. that's good

I think it should be a catchy phrase like that to try to define her. Obviously we have a lot of material on her, but summing it up in two or three words like that is the idea (and the challenge, with all the stuff out there).

[ljm2002]

11. Here's one I saw on DU yesterday...

...and it gave me a chuckle: "Half-baked Alaska".

Okay maybe it's a little long, but it deserves repeating. :-)

Sorry I do not remember who first posted it and I do not have time to search this morning. But it did not originate with me.

[TomClash]

13. Might be too sexist

Though it's funny. "Alaska First" would be my choice.

[BlooInBloo]

14. Gidget is probably the most common one that I've seen.

[Celebration]

18. Yea, but poor Gidget

However, that will make my list for a poll.

[Auggie]

Gidget gets my vote

[Iris]

128. no! no! no! Gidget should not be sullied in this way.

[Hubert Flottz]

17. Barbarian Barbie

McCain must be a Barbie Collector?

[SoCalDem]

19. Fertilla the Huntress

[eowyn_of_rohan]

96. LOL - fertilla is good

[Hugabear]

20. How about Traitor?

She is one, after all.

[Vanje]

21. I genera;l;y dont approve of nicknames

I want everyone to know exactly who it is I'm testifying about.

Must say, though, I do like Caribou Barbie.

Miss Wasilla
Miss Alaska -Runner-up
Miss Running mate
Miss-Take
Miss Are You Fucking Kidding Me?

[Stinky The Clown]

22. The Great AIP

[Celebration]

34. heh, heh

Might be a little too cerebral to make the rounds, but I will include it in the poll.

[Vanje]

36. AIP?

I dont know what that is.

[Celebration]

Alaskan Independence Party-next big scandal on the list n/t

[Vanje]

48. Ah Thanks

I hope we'll be hearing about that from the big media.

[PerfectSage]

139. Planet of the AIPs or how about AILF

[rug]

23. I don't know abut her but the subject should be called palintology.

[JaneQPublic]

24. Half-Baked Alaska (nt)

[Celebration]

58. I actually really like this one n/t

[Waiting For Everyman]

64. Me too, and it would make her really mad

[krispos42]

67. Half-Baked Alaskan!

Or Caribou Barbie.

[City Lights]

66. That's my favorite!

Fits her perfectly!

[liberal N proud]

27. "Secessionist Sarah"

Thanks to DUer CatBO

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x6879785

[Celebration]

32. Ha...like that one too

There are tons of nicknames floating around out there. Hopefully we can collect them all here, and I'll put them up for a vote later.

[gemlake]

106. I like that one. lol

[robertpaulsen]

122. That's the key. Great choice! n/t

[liberal N proud]

145. I have to give credit to DUer CatBO

Saw in one of CatBO's threads.

[Lorien]

129. That was going to be my suggestion too

:thumbsup:

[ellie]

30. I like Caribou Barbie

[Waiting For Everyman]

33. An idea from another thread... Incitatus

Caligula's horse which he made consul

[Celebration]

37. hahaha

However, you had to explain it to me. I'd rather have something self explanatory for the average person.

[Waiting For Everyman]

38. Another one I loved - Spiro Igloo!

Can't remember who said it, but that's too funny!

I guess probably Gidget is the best though. But I'd still add "with a gun". GWAG.

[ColbertWatcher]

131. That's a good one! n/t

[Arugula Latte]

62. Insulting to horses, but I like it otherwise.

:)

[L. Coyote]

35. NA/HOUSEWIFE is what she called herself in 2004.

While she worked on the Oil and Gas commission and for Ted Stevens' 527
opensecrets.org

PALIN, SARAH 	NA/HOUSEWIFE	6/8/04	$328	Republican Party of Alaska (R)
PALIN, SARAH    HOMEMAKER	7/22/04	$300	Miller, Mike (R)

[Celebration]

40. Interesting

But we don't want to offend the NA housewives out there.

[Waiting For Everyman]

42. GRANDMA!

Goes with Gramps, too. :)

[Zuiderelle]

59. "PALIN, SARAH NA/HOUSEWIFE 6/8/04"

McCain's running mate considered herself a housewife just four years ago. Not that there's anything wrong with that, unless you're running for Vice President of the United States. Experience should really be a pre-requisite for that job.

[L. Coyote]

100. A housewife could do a better job than Bush/Cheney, but not this one!!

I'll speculate that over 50% of American housewives would have avoided the Junta's major blunders! NOT rofl!

[lame54]

45. here 's a sexist one - "The Iditabroad"

[Celebration]

46. you are right

too sexist, but thanks. Some even object to Barbie.

[bunkerbuster1]

101. Too funny.

I know I shouldn't laugh, but I must.

[Waiting For Everyman]

47. Moosebreath

[Waiting For Everyman]

52. Oh, alright...

Grannie Moosebreath, then.

[Celebration]

56. I would like it fine

But for this particular poll, I am going to respect Obama's explicit desire that the daughter is off limits. This is despite the fact that I personally feel that the odds are that Sarah's baby is really Bristol's. That fits the facts better but there are plenty of threads on that. No references to Bristol's "pregnancy."

[dkofos]

49. Caribou barbie is so cute. I prefer KILLER PYSCHO FUNDIE BITCH FROM HELL!!

Kind of long but it does cover her finest qualities.

[Celebration]

53. I told you it was a challenge

What we would like to call her and what will actually stick as a nickname may be two different things. I'm getting some good ideas here, though. I hope people keep them coming. I'll go with stuff that is posted here through this afternoon or so.

I doubt if yours makes the list, LOL. But thanks!!

[lpbk2713]

55. Well .... she's from Alaska.

And she's not an Inuit.

But she IS a nitwit.

61. Cruella? Sponge-Sarah Squarepants?

[Arugula Latte]

63. I came up with "AIPalin" or "AIP-ailin"

"Sarah Failin'"?

Then maybe it'll be "Sarah Bailin'" ...

[Celebration]

68. Is her name a short or long "a"

I have only watched a little TV. I thought it was a long a but then I heard it with a short a..........

I like AIPalin.

I have a feeling it will be "Sarah Bailin." National Enquirer setting an office up in Alaska is pretty telling.

[Arugula Latte]

75. It's pronounced "Pay-lin"

[Celebration]

76. I thought so!!

However, it was a Republican who pronounced it incorrectly.

[Ichingcarpenter]

65. Failing Palin Mama

What a mom!

[LiberalEsto]

69. Pandora

She opens up a box of troubles

[DeadManInc]

70. Wacko from Wasilla

[Celebration]

73. aha--I was trying to think of Wasilla in there

I had thought "Wasilla Wonder". Wasilla Wacko is better.

[holiday]

72. I like Dan Quayle with a ponytail

but could be taken as sexist

[Celebration]

74. Well, not by me

Honestly Dan Quayle looks like a rocket scientist compared to this person.

[stubtoe]

77. Mooseburger McKenzie.

[Celebration]

82. What is the McKenzie part of this?

Mooseburger Mama might be okay. It brings up her "motherhood" but without the scandal.

[stubtoe]

87. I just thought it sounded kinda Alaskan, and it starts with an "M".

(Apologies to any McKenzies out there)

[ColbertWatcher]

133. The Second City guys had a skit about the Great White North ...

... where they used the name McKenzie, maybe that's what you're remembering?

[stubtoe]

157. You mean, "Koo roo koo koo koo koo koo kooooo"??

I remember it well! That must be where I got it. Thanks for the chuckle.

[liberalitch]

78. Granny Abstinence!

Whose daughter could not..... as is true of most normal people.

[Waiting For Everyman]

80. How about just plain KILLER

HouseMouse (nasty biker reference, but subordinate and domestic is what turns her on) doesn't really convey her bloodthirsty personality though.

Bloodsport Barbie

Wasilly Putty

[Waiting For Everyman]

83. Sarah Stepford

June Cleavage

Syrup Impalem

Smurfette deVille

[Celebration]

84. Barracuda Sarah

From here

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=3897710&mesg_id=3897820

Too bad a Barracuda isn't Alaskan.

[ColbertWatcher]

136. That's actually her nickname when she played basketball in HS. n/t

[Celebration]

86. Is this too dated?

Or against Obama's wishes re: the children?

"Peyton Place Palin"

or

"Soap Opera Sarah"

[CatBO]

89. Secessionist Sarah says it all... n/t

[Waiting For Everyman]

90. Pay-Liar

Spermette

[Kickin_Donkey]

92. When I first someone use Caribou Barbie, I LOL ...

Here's another suggestion playing on the capital of Alaska and the recent movie: Governor Juno.

[Celebration]

95. I like it but too much emphasis on the baby thing

Very cute, though.

[Truth2Tell]

93. The Tanya Harding of the Tundra. nt

[Vanje]

110. Like it!

Yes, I do.

[margotb822]

94. America's Next Top Caribou Huntress

I read that yesterday and nearly passed out laughing. It's long, but hilarious.

[Cronus Protagonist]

97. McCain's Sexy Secretary

:P

[leftofthedial]

98. no relation to Michael

[Oilwellian]

99. Two come to mind...

Bloody Sarah and Ma Palin.

[blues90]

102. That will help , act like children

This is what you want the Dems to look like more than many already look?

There is no substance to childish titles at all.

[L. Coyote]

104. Desperate McCain's Housewife

Not that there is anything negative about housewife!

And, not that I think we need a nickname.

But, this is a difficult thread to resist.

[bunkerbuster1]

107. "Caribou Barbie" or "Trophy Veep"

"Christianist Fucknut" is better, but won't get published in a lot of newspapers.

[chat_noir]

108. Sarah-Dippity

Think that it was a repub that said this...he used only one p, though.

:rofl:

[Matariki]

113. Someone also suggested "Half Baked Alaska" n./t

[Eurobabe]

114. Impaled. n/t

[denem]

115. APallin'

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

116. Miss Mooseburger Fundienut

or Mayor Mooseburger McCheesecake?

[csziggy]

118. Somebody in another place mentioned Talibarbie

AS in Taliban Barbie.

[beac]

119. Disastsarah

for she is surely McCain's most disasterous blunder to date!

[orleans]

120. Palin: BatShit Crazy & Proud of it n/t

[Alexander]

121. Sarah Failin'...

:shrug:

[Canuckistanian]

123. I liked "Tundra Barbie"

Not my idea, but I saw some poster use it the other day.

[Toucano]

147. Not as good as the Caribou. Lacks the sparkle of the Malilbu Barbie - Caribou Barbie rhyme.

But what do I know?

[ColbertWatcher]

126. I've always been partial to "Anna Nicole Palin"

[underpants]

132. Wasilla-zilla

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

134. Northern-Lite

[bdamomma]

135. I like Caribou Barbie even Stephanie Miller said it today

maybe we should can all this stuff, can't we rise above this crap.

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

137. damn. if she were 3 years older - AK 47

[romulusnr]

138. Palin Comparison

...to HRC or any woman Dem leader, and even some Repug women leaders.

[demo dutch]

140. Tinkerbell - fairies don't live long & are dependent on the belief of others to survive.

[hfojvt]

142. My idea was "Sarah Palin and Tall"

after the "Sarah Plain and Tall" books and because her resume is kinda plain even if she's not.

[Critters2]

143. I'm goin' with "Secesh". It's short, perky, and accurate. nt

[Celebration]

148. What does that mean? n/t

[Critters2]

150. Short for "secesssionist". It's one of the derogatory terms Northerners

used for Confederates during the Civil War.

[eowyn_of_rohan]

144. I first thought McCain & Palin were like Boris and Natasha

but that was before the baby shit hit the fan. Now it doesn't work

[Celebration]

146. Kicking this

Now that it has national attention from Michelle Malkin--

Keep them coming and the poll will be in an hour or so-- Michelle may not be happy that the very worst of them probably won't make the poll.

[PerfectSage]

149. How about Pallyanna

Pol·ly·an·na (pl-n)
n.
A person regarded as being foolishly or blindly optimistic.

[rurallib]

151. "rapture ready Barbie"

Well - I am in with at least one.
How about "Gramps' little surprise"

[DCKit]

152. FYLF

As in "Fundies" and "You" ('cause I'm not going there).

Only because Michelle Malkin saw fit to make this thread famous.

"There is no such thing as bad press." Granted, the mods are going to have their hands full for a few days, but the DU's membership is going to rise as fast as McInsane's numbers drop.

[Iggo]

153. Footnote. (n/t)

[flvegan]

154. I still like Miss Deadliest Catch

I first heard it from Bluebear.
