The dolls sport outfits inspired by their counterparts, with the Palin doll wearing the Republican candidate's signature rimless eyeglasses, red suit and heels.
"These four folks in particular seemed like the perfect candidates, if you will, to become one-of-a-kind Cabbage Patch Kids," said Jakks Pacific Inc. spokeswoman Genna Rosenberg. "We've had a great history with making celebrity look-alikes with these Kids. We've done everyone from Elvis to Donald Trump to Ellen (DeGeneres) and Oprah (Winfrey)."
All proceeds from the auction, which begins Thursday and ends Nov. 4, will benefit the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation. Jakks Pacific will also auction six limited edition 25th-anniversary dolls that have been created to look identical to the original Cabbage Patch Kids that were first released in 1983.

Just because you carry your AFRICAN FATHER's name doesn't make you a Muslim. Barack Hussein Obama is a Christian. It is propaganda like the comment before mine which continues to make this great country backwards. Fortunately it is only a few people who are still lost in space, believing that our blood is not as red as theirs. This was etched in stone tonight when Obama became the first African-American President in US history. The world looks to us for change and we've shown them tonight that we are still a great country, changing and growing more powerful every year. Stop being ignorant. Open your mind and support this man. Or you WILL have a Muslim president when the terrorists take over this country due to the continued racial divide here. We are all Americans. Please act like one.

ROFL. The fact that you even asked that ridiculous question proves you "don't get it". LOL Two words are all I need to describe Obama, intelligent and qualified. Those two words most definitely do not describe Sarah Palin. This ditz couldn't be more UNqualified. She's a religious fruitcake who got blessed against witchcraft, and that's just for starters. Do you want that moron a heartbeat away from the presidency? I don't . Fortunately her 15 mins. of fame is long gone.>>>>>>>>>> GHarr4321 01:20 PMOct 28 2008 wrote: WOULD SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME WHY OBAMA IS QUALIFIED TO BE PRESIDENT BUT SARAH ISN'T? I DON'T GET IT!
