So I guess there was something major going on the last couple of days..

I didn't get to sleep until pretty late after watching Obama take the reigns of a country he probably wouldn't have recognized when he started campaigning 22 months ago.

There was a point yesterday after Obama's speech, after Biden and Michelle and the families left the stage, Obama was the only one on left standing there and to me it looked like the enormity of the task at hand hit him. I'm not sure if it was by design but Obama was the last person to leave the stage and although the eyes of the world were one him (as they will be when he is president) it looked like a very lonely and isolated place. Maybe he didnt' realize that Bush left him a burning house.

Is there any worse TV than trying to get some political opinion than 9PM? Rachel Maddow on MSNBC is terrible, Larry King might be pulling a Weekend at Bernie's thing and honestly you can't watch Hannity and Colmes. Did get a nice mental visual from Newsweek's Special Election Project:

At the GOP convention in St. Paul, Palin was completely unfazed by the boys' club fraternity she had just joined. One night, Steve Schmidt and Mark Salter went to her hotel room to brief her. After a minute, Palin sailed into the room wearing nothing but a towel, with another on her wet hair. She told them to chat with her laconic husband, Todd. "I'll be just a minute," she said.

Carl Cameron on O'Reilly told Bill that Palin did not realize that Africa was not a single country and also did not know the countries involved in NAFTA.. Oh God.


How absolutely dreadful did Michelle Obama look last night, seems like somebody has been snacking on that Halloween candy. When she first hit the national stage, I remember thinking she had a cute little body but now she looks like 's she's built like Hillary. Girlfriend might be time to put down the dougnuts.

My wife made the comment that she looked like a LAVA lamp in her dress and the Ryan Express points out that she looks just like Beavis
