According to news reports, Gov. Sarah Palin skipped the lunchtime political briefing at the Republican Governors Association meeting in Miami on Wednesday, preferring to do an interview with CNN. But she did manage to get in some pool time later in the day.A Yeas & Nays spy spotted Palin and an aide poolside at Miami's Mandarin Oriental hotel (the GOP meetings are being held a mile away at the Intercontinental).
Rather than a bathing suit, the Pride of Wasilla was wearing a T-shirt and shorts, thanks to the windy, overcast weather.
Speaking of bluster, the governor's unsuccessful run for veep has landed her an offer from Total Nonstop Action Wrestling. TNA has offered to donate $50,000 to Palin's favorite charity, should she take an honorary position in "The Beautiful People," TNA's cadre of, well, beautiful wrestlers. The company wants her to appear at its Dec. 7 pay-per-view event.
Fox Sports is conducting an online poll, asking users what Palin's "finishing move" should be called, if she enters the squared circle to do battle. As of Thursday afternoon, the "Wasilla Thrilla" was edging out the "Bridge to Nowhere."
