Matt Damon thought that the Sarah Palin story sounds like it came from the script of a Disney movie.

During the response, does Katie Couric think (WTF, I know how to answer this better than her. Why shouldn’t I be the VP?). Cafferty puts it blunty as he should since the prospect of Palin falling into the Presidency is a scary one. Even though Romney is a douche I would not be afraid if he had to take over from McCain.

Shudder…

The Palin effect is gone and John McCain seems to be faltering badly. This week must have been the worst week for any politician ever. Rachel Maddow sums it up perfectly.

Time to get political. Sarah Palin and John McCain aren’t Mavericks since they have lots of lobbying connections.

Sarah Palin brought in $27 Million in earmarks to her small town of of 9,000 people. She campaigned as being for the Bridge to Nowhere, then when it was politically unpopular she was wishy washy on it, but still kept the money for the bridges construction. The jet she tried to sell on eBay was listed three times and never sold. It was eventually sold for a loss of $600,000.
