Reality from Wasilla Main Street

"I think we need a little bit of reality from Wasilla Main Street there, brought to Washington, D.C."—Sarah Palin during the VP Debate, Oct. 2, 2008

I was skeptical that there even was a Main Street in Wasilla, but sure enough, there it is. In fact, there's three whole blocks of Main Street, before it turns into Wasilla Fishhook Road on one end and Knik Goose Bay Road on the other.


So what kind of "reality" as she put it, is she going to bring from Main Street in Wasilla. Since apparently Google Streetview hasn't had a chance to make it's way up there, I'm relying on Yelp and Google Maps to find out what's really on Main Street.

Of course, there's the A-1 Pawn Shop.

It doesn't get more real than Donut King.

You can't forget about Christina's Boutique.

There's the trusted services of Mullett Craig DDS.

My personal favorite is Flakey's Wake & Bakery.

But the one that I think will prove to be most helpful, especially with in this economic downturn, is the cleverly named Business Computer Solutions.

I sincerely hope that Sarah Palin is able to log on to the Wasilla computer and download some business computer solutions and bring them to the White House! Because if there's one thing that Washington, D.C. needs to run more efficiently, it's pawn shops, donuts, and places to wake & bake.

  1. What about Valley Medical Supply?!? "Very helpful staff, special ordered what I needed. lots of scrubs and uniforms and I got everything to fill up my first aid kit too."

    We can't solve the problems in Washington without lots of scrubs!

  3. Indeed. Washington, DC needs to be more like Wasilla.

    A town where only 12 percent of the population has graduated from college, and where 90 percent of the people are white. Indeed.
