Doodles of Dreams

October 07, 2008 12:33 PM

Do you remember last year when Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., donated a doodle for an auction to benefit Neurofibromatosis, Inc. and epilepsy research? The doodle, of some of his Senate colleagues, sold for more than $2,000 on eBay.

Now we have a doodle from another campaign 2008 rock star, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

New Republic senior editor Noam Scheiber went up to Alaska to profile the governor and during a visit with Palin’s former colleague on the city council, Laura Chase, found this document — the  back of a Wasilla city budget which Palin doodled on in 1996 as she plotted her mayoral campaign.

She makes notes on slogans: “You would be my boss! No tax increase! … Wasilla needs a conservative choice in leadership.”

She makes notes on her resume: “Life Long Alaskan; Graduate: Wasilla High School, Univ. of Idaho (Bach. In Journalism, minor Politics); Wife, mother of three, Homeowners, Businesswoman, TAXPAYER!;…NRA supporter,” “taxpayer!”

There’s a close-up scan of the document HERE.

New “Just Ask!” T-shirt Design

We are thinking of redesigning the shirts so they are simpler, more fun, and are equally appealing to men and women.

We have two styles we’re looking at – distressed and/or solid colors. We’re also investigating different colors for the shirts.

Which design do you like? What colors would you prefer?

Let us know below and who knows, you just might see the shirt of your dreams up here in a few days!
