Fort Worth Star Telegram – That sure looked like the Alaska governor moose hunting in downtown Fort Worth on Wednesday.
And she found an already-well-stuffed target: business and political leaders generously donating money for Christmas gifts for 1,500 children, thanks to the Exchange Club of Fort Worth.
By the time Sarah Palin look-alike Kristy Casey of Houston winked her last "You betcha!" and introduced Fort Worth lawyer and political pooh-bah Dee Kelly as a "maverick," the 160 members of the tradition-rich civic club had toasted the holidays and taken up $75,000 for the Star-Telegram’sGoodfellow Fund.
"The Guv" teased Kelly by presenting him a double-sided political yard sign supporting two 2010 candidates for governor: U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison and aspiring governor-for-life Rick Perry. The Palin double also dropped off a belated Wendy Davis campaign sign for Fort Worth Mayor Mike Moncrief, a Democrat who backed Republican state Sen. Kim Brimer in a moose-sized defeat.
