Sarah Palin’s done more than bring some vitatlity to John McCain’s presidential campaign. She’s also given the eyeglass industry a big boost. While searching for a story of her glasses I came across a few snide articles saying she should get new glasses, that her’s aren’t very fashionable. Sort of like the snipes people have made about her hair.
Well, if her glasses were out of date, what’s old is new again. It seems the manufacturer of Governor Palin’s eyeglasses is being flooded with orders for glasses just like hers.
It’s been awhile since the optical business has been as charged by celebrity specs as it has by the rimless pair the vice presidential nominee wears most of the time. If she wins, it could rock the vision-care market, which totals $26.6 billion a year, says tracker Jobson Optical Research.
Now she’s started an eyeglasses craze. Poor Obama, he’s not just running against John McCain, he’s also running against Sarah Palin. Who is Obama’s running mate? I forgot.
