Sarah Palin Story

The reverse of a Cinderella story, usually in a situation where everyone hates the Cinderella. It can also be a David vs. Goliath situation where everyone wants to see Goliath win, because everyone hates the underdog.

I can't believe she gets to be homecoming queen just because she was on "Made." It's such a Sarah Palin Story.

1.I don't remember taking a picture with that creepy guy! It's just his face too! Who is that?...
