I didn't doubt SNL, The Daily Show, Stephen Colbert, etc. could have influence some people, but I'm saddened by how lazy and uneducated people have let themselves become. Especially when information is so easily available.

Welcome to American Politics. It absolutely shocks me how many people can't even tell you who their own basic representatives are, let alone those in another state.
FWIW, I wasn't thrilled about the naming of Sarah Palin as the VP contender, but kept quiet about it (certain GC people can vouch for that). The spoofs on her - which entirely
too many people believed as truth, not spoofs - just made a bad situation worse. Frankly, the older man/younger MILF combination was a little creepy. Yet, while I will respect the Office of the President and Vice President, I'm still not convinced that the men currently holding these offices are the best that the United States has to offer.
I'm an American, and I want the very best for America. Nobody can convince me that the four people who represented the two major parties were the best this country has to offer. [/soapbox]
Now to the topic at hand:
I have a feeling that Sarah Palin may be pregnant. Has anyone noticed the clothing she's worn for "interviews" this weekend? The overalls, the waders, the loose dress - I wouldn't be at all surprised. I'm more surprised by the nasty remarks still made about her.
