I think I found Sarah Palin a new gig!

She’ll host/ judge/ ruin this new reality show about the Iditarod, and, boom, six months from now – the White Oprah! (Tip of the hat to J Dot Domingo, who’s actually predicting this White Oprah outcome, he’s probably kidding)

It indeed flew under my radar that the Discovery Channel was airing a new show this Fall about the 1,000+ mile Alaskan sled dog race, called “Toughest Race on Earth: Iditarod“, which premiered on 10/14 and airs every Friday, at 8 p.m. Check out the trailer:

Since this series is apparently baked, I’m thinking as a follow-up: “America’s Next Top Musher”, hosted by Palin, featuring a cast of characters resembling the usual cast of reality show characters. (what’s Bonaduce been up to, anyway?)

And, boom, a year from now you can rest assured that Sarah Palin is preoccupied folksin’ around in Alaska with a bunch of VH1 producers, and has all but abandoned blind political ambitions.
