"Palin"-dromes

Naturally great sport is being made of Palin out there in blogoland. I read someone suggesting we try our hands at creating "Palin"-dromes. I came up with two, and without the aid of software, I swear.

The first is a commentary on the fact that SP has dragged her poor daughter before the international klieg lights, agreeing to enter this race when she had to know that we'd find out about young Bristol's pregnancy and the supermarket tabloids would come banging on the luckless girl's door (Ruth Marcus of the WashPost has an excellent and serious take on this in today's WP). Anyway, herewith:

Ah, Dame Bristol's lot, sir? Be mad! Ha!

The second encapsulates something Palin herself might be thinking right about now:

I, made veep? Peeved am I!

You can try this at home. They're pretty hard, actually.
