If you're like me, you eagerly read Slate's unauthorized index of Sarah Palin's Going Rogue. And, if you're like me, one of the items you're most curious about is the reference to "an old LL Cool J remix" on page 114.
Well, here's the relevant sentence. She's talking about some people she met while campaigning for governor. "They treated us to slices of homemade rhubarb pie, then gave us a whole blueberry pie that we shared with friends after our 800-mile, 40-hour round-trip, driven to the sound of the Black Eyed Peas and an old LL Cool J remix we found in the glove box." (More interesting claim on that same page--she hints that Obama bit her 'change' theme.)
I'm underwhelmed. Incidentally, though, Uncle L doesn't have any remix albums (well, there's a 12" compilation from '93, but it was vinyl-only), so either it was a cassingle, or she's playing fast and loose with the facts. As fun as it is to imagine the candidate listening to a remix of 'To Da Break of Dawn' or 'Pink Cookies in a Plastic Bag' for forty hours, I think the latter is more likely.
