Do They Get YouTube at Del Boca Vista?

If they do, Sarah Silverman's Great Schleppers might want to show their bubbes and zadies this video of Sarah Palin getting blessed at her church (the scary stuff starts at about 1:20):

The "Israelites"? (H/t Andrew Sullivan)

I'm just wondering if John McCain has spent the past two weeks saying, "Serenity Now!"

Actually, South Floridian Jews are used to hanging out with people like this and they really get along quite well. It's Manhattan and Santa Monica Jews who break into hives-- making Obama's leads in California and New York that much more yawning, as opposed to the razor-thin margin that McCain will probably win by in a place like Florida.

The plausibility of Obama winning the popular vote by a significant margin and losing the electoral college grows ever more salient, I think. This is the true POLITICAL meaning of Sarah Palin -- her utterly polarizing persona -- not that she's some kind of moron or saint. POLICY meaning? I opine that McCain thinks she's a unsophisticated joke and will have her cutting ribbons for his entire term.

Don't you think it's touching the way he blessed her at the end? Now she'll be protected from those Israelites who will practice their witchcraft on her when she and Johnny Mac try to take our economy away from them.

Actually, Mcorey, Nate Silver still has it 6.87% of the time that Obama wins the electoral vote, loses the popular vote while that happens for McCain 1.01% of the time.  Seems for now at least the states where Obama's state polls are outperforming the national average add up to >270 along the Iowa, New Mexico Colorado route.  McCain doesn't have that luxery.
