The stainless steel cabinets in the train car's kitchen are packed with thick, blue Ultimat bottles and lots of varieties of Patrón. The "First Parents" had planned on stopping by the Patrón Express today, since George H.W. Bush, a fishing friend of DeJoria's, had never seen his "wheels" before. And DeJoria says Barbara Bush is a big fan of his tequila. They instead returned to Washington after appearing at the convention on Tuesday night.

DeJoria, the face of Paul Mitchell who played himself in the Adam Sandler movie You Don't Mess With the Zohan, says he's an independent. He voted for Republican Ron Paul, but would have chosen Dennis Kucinich if he'd stayed in the Democratic primary. In Denver, he hosted a slew of politicians, including New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson. And he's been attending parties in both convention cities as a celebrity ambassador for the Creative Coalition—a non-profit that brings together artists and policymakers to increase awareness on health care, education, and other issues.

"This is really the best way to see the country. And to take an active role in this election," he says of his train-car convention tour.

As for this week's main news, DeJoria has some advice for Alaska governor Sarah Palin as she hits the national scene as McCain's running mate:

"For Alaska, she has the perfect hairstyle," he says. "She has a pretty face and should show it off by sculpting around her face. Not layers, just sculpt." He also thinks she should wear her hair down and shoulder length.

What about the Democrats? DeJoria has less to say.

"Biden's stuck in his ways," he says about Barack Obama's running mate, the senator from Delaware.

And the top of the ticket? "If Obama's hairstyle catches on, my business will drop by 50 percent! He doesn't have hair!"
