LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Sarah Palin represents many things Hollywood liberals love to hate, from her opposition to gay marriage to her support for gun rights, yet she possesses two key qualities they admire -- star appeal and a great script.
Accordingly, Hollywood Republicans -- often overshadowed by their left-leaning peers -- are seeking to capitalize on the celebrity of John McCain's running mate in the November 4 election to generate support in a town well-known for its lavish Democratic fund-raisers and events.
"She's certainly got star appeal and is the kind of candidate that is made for Hollywood. I offered to throw her a fundraiser myself," said MGM chief Harry Sloan, one of Hollywood's most vocal Republicans.
Palin has shaken up the White House race, boosted enthusiasm among previously apathetic supporters of McCain's presidential nomination and drawn support from women, rural voters and Southerners, according to recent polls.
Sloan said there were no plans for a Palin Hollywood fundraiser yet as her campaign managers were inundated with similar requests from all over the country after her national debut at the Republican National Convention on September 3.

Read My Lips, Obama!
From what I've seen and read regarding Sarah so far, I'm under the impression she doesn't even own a TV much less spend any time in a movie theater. I doubt it would matter a whit to her if she's ever linked to some evil character in a movie or tv show.
Actually, someone’s being very clever. The anarchists seem to have been helping the rats. No finger prints.
Britney may be a republican, but she looks terrible in that picture.
Yeah, I really appreciate the words of wisdom that some of America’s dumbest have to offer.
