# Political Look-A-Likes Sarah Palin For Dell? By Going Like Sixty | Published 2008-09-04 | Social Good Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sarah-palin-look-a-like-dell References: [mediabistro](http://www.mediabistro.com/agencyspy/enfatico/is_sarah_palin_moonlighting_for_dellenfatico_93449.asp?c=rss) A dead-on Sarah Palin look-a-like shows up in a [Dell](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dell-xps13-plus) ad in the September issue of Forbes magazine. What's interesting is that print publications like Forbes have a very long lead time, often several months. The Sarah Palin look-a-like appears in a pretty standard shot of an uppity, hard-nosed business woman standing among her cubicle domain with the new Dell/Infatico held tightly against her sexy bosom. Sarah Palin, I mean her look-a-like, snorts, “I WANT” and I fall to my knees begging for mercy.
