As a little more conservative offering (probably to cater to the Conservative vote) there is a generic Action Figure where our heroine wears a dark suit that I can’t decide whether it’s black pajamas, or a Hillary-Clinton-esque Pantsuit.

You can buy your own Sarah Doll from Hero Builders which also has McCain, Obama and even – for us New Yorkers – an Elliot Spitzer action figure.
