I think Titty George Bush is more apt.
Tits Bush ftw

Yes, the Nixon appelation is far more about...

The manipulation and the abuse of power and the attitude of acquiring power as an unassailable end towards which any means can be used.

Oh, y'know, and also that Giant Chip on The Shoulder thing.

Original Nixon obsessed with proving that he was better than the rich kids and the popular kids and the intellects he met along the way.

And... Titty Nixon obsessed with disproving that with her good purse and her cheap shoes, she looks like a rube.

Original Nixon was, of course, a smarter and more... not forgivable but certainly an evil that can be more easily sympathized with.

But this psycho might be even more single minded... and as Futurama pointed out the idea of Nixon with charisma, even the plastic charisma of a failed beauty queen on the prowl for War Jesus, is ridiculously scary.

(Bobbie Dooley is a character on the Phil Hendrie radio show, who is the head of a homeowners association in a Ventura County gated community who abuses her very small amount of power in ridiculous ways, has a clueless lapdog husband who just repeats whatever she says and is obsessed with being "the cool parent in the neighborhood" to the point of encouraging drunken teenage orgies in her house because he fancies herself the mom that all her son's friends have crushes on, such is the depths of her depraved vanity. This character has existed for ten years or more and the resemblance is uncanny.)

Palin as Poet:

Written by Jough's distant cousin (think Al Gore and Gore Vidal).
