Pete Wentz Turned Political Pundit, Secret Republican?

Pete Wentz is pretty busy lately — in addition to wearing some serious mom-pants to the VMAs last night, he also had to deny the completely ridiculous rumor that his wife Ashlee was pregnant with twins.

But that doesn’t mean that Pete’s too busy to participate in the time-honored tradition of celebrities remarking upon the current political climate. And really, who better to contribute to the current dialogue than the kid that posts about dolls, sneakers and Kanye West? In his latest blog post, Wentz likens Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin to child star Danny Cooksey, who played Bobby Budnick on Nickelodeon staple Salute Your Shorts.

More bizarrely though is the fact that Wentz states that Palin has been brought in to “shake up the narrative and inject new, younger ideas into the game” — a surprisingly complimentary choice of words for someone who hosted an Obama fundraiser back in January. Sadly though, Wentz must be privy to the “new, younger” ideas Palin is set to introduce — so far she seems like an old white dude trapped in a hot soccer mom’s body.
