Obama masks outselling McCain's masks at Halloween Stores- CLICK HERE!

A precurser to the Presidential Election - I think not (and I hope not)

That's not to say that I am stating my political views on this blog .. just that I do not believe that the sale of Halloween masks will predict the election outcome. Primarily because of the demographics that would buy Halloween masks to begin with.

Political candidates have been going door-to-door Trick or Treating for decades, but you'll likely see more Barack Obamas than John McCains this Halloween say the local store owners and online retailers.

Vinyl masks of Democrat presidential candidate Obama are reportedly selling better nationwide, and locally, than those of Republican McCain. Visit Costume Craze for Political Costumes

The real question is how the costume sales for Sarah Palin are selling? We saw a mask online of Sarah Palin at BuyCostume - but I think that you can do Sarah without a mask.

The key to the Palin makeup look is the glossy mauve lipstick. Pick up a bottle of Wet and Wild at the local drugstore. Add some Gray eyeshadow and a bit of bronzer and you are good to go :)
Sexy Librarian Glasses: Palin’s rectangular glasses are flying off the shelves according to some sources. Get a pair at any drugstore like CVS or Rite-Aid in the reading glass section.
Get a great pair of dangle earrings. (she loves those dangles)
Get a power suit at a local thrift store. Knee length in a conservative color like gray or black and add a little color with a red blouse.
Poof your hair up in back and wear bangs (or get a good wig at BeautyTrends)

According to many polls, Sarah's popularity is skyrocketing. The pro-life, devoutly Christian, happily married mother-of-five has emerged from the political margins to become the most intriguing woman in America. Go Palin!
