Comedy for DAYS

[fredericks]

Fifteen minutes in, and Sarah Palin is officially the most hilarious thing I've seen on television this Fall. Do they not have things like debates in Alaska? Methinks the concept escapes her and her handlers. Or they think she's such an empty bag that they're afraid to have her spout anything but platitudes. "Let me speak straight to the American people..."? OMG.

Was that the one they had up at the AV Club? (http://www.avclub.com/content/blog/sarah_palin_bingo) If this debate had been held on a Friday I would have gotten a drinking game going. As it was I just sat and let it wash over me.

I really hope they don't win.

It was *very* similar, but not identical (mostly just because of different fonts and stuff). There was no drinking, since it was a) Thursday, and one out of four people was a non-drinker anyway.

And of course I really hope they don't win, either. Sarah is funny in theory, but scary in practice. (And McCain is just an angry old man in so many ways.)

You take Bush and Cheney, for instance: I dislike Bush and I absolutely detest Cheney, but I can see Cheney leading this nation if shit went down. Hells, we all know dude did tons of work before his ticker went all wonky. Palin seems like such a ditz I'm afraid to even contemplate being Riker to McCain's Picard. Their powers combined, and all that jazz.

And I just commented anonymously. So that was me.
