Assuming her application goes through, Sarah Palin will be unlikely to use her new trademark against groups like ''Democrats for Palin/Bachmann in 2012''. And really, what Democrat isn't hoping Palin and Bachmann get the Republican nomination? Nor would her trademark be of any use in stopping Palin parodies, to the immense relief of SNL fans everywhere.
With these examples in mind, I plan to trademark my name in relation to ''information about legal, cultural and political issues''. My application has a better chance of getting approved, too, because unlike the ladies from the House of Palin, I plan to sign the documents before submitting them.
