Politics rambling... shouldn't write about politics when I'm exhausted...

The dirt on Sarah Palin gets funnier and funnier, even with the election over... even if some of it's possibly just gossip, enough of it is rooted in stuff that we know (the shopping spree, the Sarkozy prank call... which, btw, go Canada!) that it all seems pretty likely. Really goes to show, while she alone wasn't responsible for McCain's defeat, she certainly didn't help. Not least because McCain's choice of her so undermined a lot of people's respect for him, it was so irresponsible. With another running mate, it definitely would have been tighter.. though I suppose she does appeal to that wingnut base that doesn't like McCain much because, you know, he's not enough of a far-right wingnut. -_- Which is a pity, because that's one of the main things that allows me some respect for the man. Guy was made worse by the others in his party, not to mention his voter base. ^^ Still wouldn't have wanted him as president, though. *shudder* Esp because of the aforementioned far-right wingnuts. It's really too bad how much that super-conservative/religious right mindset has taken over both the Republicans down there and the Conservatives up here. I wouldn't generally much like either to begin with, and they make it all that much worse...

Anyway. What're we going to do without these people to mock anymore?? What are the comedians going to do? XD I'm kinda going to miss the Palin-baiting... and lol at Jon Stewart last night saying he'll miss doing Bush impressions. ;) Oh well, it'll be a nice change of pace to have a government down there that doesn't inspire that much mocking, I suppose. At least Stephen Colbert will have lots of mileage from having a president his character doesn't like. ;)

Um. Anyway. Bed now, for real.
