Ian Byrne here. This is my inaugural Sarah Palin post, and hopefully my last. Aside from watching television and hanging out with Charlie Sheen over break, I read a little news here and there. The best headline I read: Among Independents, Sheen Would Beat Palin in Presidential Race (TIME Magazine). Regardless of my views on Palin, the fact that Public Policy Polling, PPP, a rather reputable pollster, would even bother to entertain such a ridiculous matchup and then have Sheen carry independent voters (considered the Holy Grail by every major party candidate) is, well, hilarious. (Talk about a brilliant public relations exercise by PPP though.) For those wanting vengeance after reading this, Sheen does beat Obama among Republicans 37% to 28%…. with 35% undecided. The PPP press release with polling numbers can be found here on page 13.

We do have some idea how President Sheen would look though.
