Palin syrah getting boost from Sarah Palin.

Almost as amusing as John McCain sharing his name with a Toasters drummer who looks like Obama. From Breitbart:

Democrats watching the presidential campaign may find it hard to swallow a glass of the syrah Palin.

The organic red wine, pronounced "pay-LEEN sih-rah," comes from a small winery in northern Chile.

According to distributor North Berkeley Imports' Web site, the vintner's name "describes a ball that was used in an ancient game played by the Mapuche, a group of people indigenous to central Chile."

But that hasn't stopped some drinkers from making the political connection to Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.

"They would just basically say, 'Oh, I don't want to drink that. That's too close,'" said Chris Cavelli, co-owner of the Yield Wine Bar in San Francisco. "It reminds them too much of Sarah Palin."

He said the wine, which his bar sells by the glass, was a good seller there until Palin was nominated for the Republican ticket. Cavelli plans to keep it on the list.

"I think it's pretty funny," he said.
