With Sarah Palin’s recent announcement that she’ll be stepping down early as governor of Alaska, we’re going back to some old rumors that swirled late last year: that she could become the newest desperate housewife. Ken Tucker from Entertainment Weekly has the same idea.
It was sort of mentioned lightly last year, what with her hot career in politics and all….but now? This is seriously a viable option for the conservative pro-abstinence parent of an unwed teenage mother. Ken’s reasoning is that we need a replacement for Edie. I disagree — we need someone to take over the NRA-badge-totin role on this show. Bree’s gotten far too moderate these days, don’t you think?
So I’m using this blog as a political platform. Post a comment if you want to see the former VP candidate as an actress on “Desperate Housewives.” Maybe she and Marc will see it and listen to us. You, American Desperate Housewives Fans, can have your voice heard!
Who’s with me??

Seriously?? You want to bring crazy psycho to Wisteria Lane?? I never thought something could keep me from wanting to watch the show but bringing such a political and human disaster to the cast would probably do it for me. She’s anti so many things and people and I’d have to be anti-DH. Palin stick to your little narrow-minded life and leave DH out of it.
Damien — I’m a glutton for punishment. I love watching train wrecks. I love drama. Why else have would I have fallen in love with “Desperate Housewives” so easily?
I want Sarah Palin on the show for the same reasons I wanted Gaby to become self-centered and hot again — she’s obviously not a better person that way….but she’s sure a lot more fun to watch!
My only stipulation? Sarah’s gotta be a good actress, and they’ve GOT to keep some of her bizarre personality.
As a guy, and as one who finds Palin hot, I’d say “HECK YEAH!” It’d make for some competition for Susan, since they’re both gorgeous brunettes. She’d be the perfect newest addition. It’d be like when Oprah was the newest housewife. They could drum it up that she wanted a break from a high profile election, and wanted to settle down. She could be the central mystery. And you know Marc Cherry is a republican, so he’d totally love to have her on!
Honestly? If Sarah Palin comes to Wisteria Lane? I’m moving — to another show.
Jamie, are you telling me you didn’t watch the circus that was this country leading up to the election as if it were an episode of DH? Oh man, it was worse. Like watching a bad sitcom. Only it was real. And I couldn’t get enough!
I hate real-life drama, which is why I avoid it at any and all cost(s). The circus leading up to the election was indeed interesting to see, but Sarah Palin on DH? Egad!
Well, maybe if she pops in for a cameo…
