I guess we should get ready for four years of Sarah Palin jokes.

If you recall in the 1990s, it was Newt Gingrich who was demonized and therefore satirized in the media.

Sarah Palin, Bush, heck they're still making jokes about Dan Quayle for Pete's sake!

“If you recall in the 1990s, it was Newt Gingrich who was demonized and therefore satirized in the media.”

Then there was Bob Dole as the scary old corpse who fell a lot. But that all changed in ‘98 with the Lewinsky scandal. Before then, the most cutting humor on Clinton was that his wife was a bitch and he liked McDonalds. After Monica came the deluge.

Of course, they still only made fun of the one thing, i.e., infidelity. They never got around to the rest of it.
