Sarah Palin to Open Glenn Beck Show on Monday!

Two of America's most shameless opportunists get to spend more time together in front of the entire country Monday evening. Or at least part of the country.

Glenn Beck, moving from
CNN Headline News to FAUX News, will open with Alaska governor Sarah Palin. Here's the short promo of the event from Beck's personal site:

Glenn's first TV guest is...

It's been a highly sought after position---the 1st guest appearance on Glenn's brand new show on Fox News. After a Blagojevich like courtship for the slot, Governor Sarah Palin will be the first guest with Glenn on Fox this Monday at 5pm eastern. Set your Tivo!

I have no idea what Beck's publicist means by "Blagojevich-like courtship," but maybe FAUX viewers have some idea. And this does explain a bit about what Palin will be doing Monday evening, instead of attending the dinner honoring - among other bipartisan DC pols - Sen. John McCain. (hat tip to AKPetMom).

I have a hunch this will come up.
