Every time you think you're out, they pull you back in

Remember back in Little League when coaches were always saying, "A walk's as good as a hit"? Turns out, it's true!

But we can't take our mind off the train wreck that is politics.

Sarah Palin is so woefully unprepared for media interaction...it's a cruel, sad, scary joke. And John McCain's stunts are just getting more desperated and tired. He'll do anything.
