Letterman – Top 10 Things Overheard at Palin Debate Camp

10. “Let’s practice your bewildered silence.”
 9. “Can you try saying ‘yes’ instead of ‘you betcha’?”
 8. “Hey, I can see Mexico from here!”
 7. “Maybe we’ll get lucky and there won’t be any questions about Iraq, taxes or healthcare.”
 6. “We’re screwed!”
 5. “Can I just use that lipstick-pit bull thing again?”
 4. “We have to wrap it up for the day — McCain eats dinner at 4:30.”
 3. “Can we get Congress to bail us out of this debate?”
 2. “John Edwards wants to know if you’d like some private tutoring in his van.”
 1. “Any way we can just get Tina Fey to do it?”

Expectations are pretty low for Palin after her last few interviews, so I expect most (not already decided) viewers will probably think she did a pretty good job after it is all over. And if Palin blows it, conservative Michelle Malkin already has a good excuse why. The debate hasn’t even happened yet, but already my head is spinning.

    the VP debate was stunning. Palin did a decent job faking about 20% of the questions and didn’t even bother answering the other 80%.

    i couldn’t help thinking of the end of the movie Billy Madison, when the debate moderator says to Adam Sandler, “Mr. Madison, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.”
