Sarah Palin on the wall

 
 WASHINGTON:
Fans of Sarah Palin can have the Republican vice presidential nominee waving at them
from the wall of their living room thanks to a US company
that on Wednesday launched life-sized Palin wall stickers.

Dressed in a chic white jacket, black skirt and open-toe shoes, and wearing her signature glasses,
the high-resolution image of Palin stands 5 feet six inches  tall and comes
with two choices of accessories -- either Republican Party emblems or a rifle,
hockey stick and puck, tiara and lipstick.

"We were thinking about lipstick on a pig or something but we decided
to make it a little bit fun, without pushing anyone's buttons,"
Jason Weisenthal, founder of WallMonkeys.com,
which makes the Palin and other graphics to enhance people's walls, told AFP.


The life-size version costs 70 dollars, a four-foot version costs 40 dollars
and "we've just added four, 12-inch versions that you can put on your laptop computer
which you can have for 20 bucks," Weisenthal said.

WallMonkeys might produce wall art of the two presidential candidates,
Republican John McCain and Democrat Barack Obama,
but has no plans to make a life-size image of Obama's running mate, Joseph Biden.

"Nobody wants him," said Weisenthal.

But, he warned potential customers, if the Republicans don't win the election on November 4,
Palin cannot be returned to WallMonkeys.
"She doesn't come with a winning guarantee," said Weisenthal.

"Unless there's a printing defect, you can't send her back."
