You may be right about the SNL skit. The juveniles there would they were way cool to do that (rolling eyes here). On the other hand, you absolutely won’t see a skit with Joe Biden mentioning Scranton and Exxon’s 4 billion dollar tax cut 3,000 times.

You won't because nobody would laugh at it - it's boring political mumbo-jumbo that means nothing. The maverick thing on the other hand became so silly towards the end, that Palin made it into a self-mockery and she seemed to have no clue how silly she sounded. If you played any of those drinking games that were being passed around by the college kids, "maverick" would have gotten your stomach pumped at the local hospital alone.

I know McCain probably holds a lot of animosity towards Rove over what Rove did in 2000, but he needs to clean house and get Rove on board ASAP, because between these two debates, there are some people giving both McCain and Palin some bad advice. It could very well be that if you're in a vacuum chamber, you have no idea how silly something sounds or how foolish something looks, but that's no excuse. Rove needs to be running this campaign.
