"The unpredictability and the peril would increase exponentially with Palin in the mix. This scenario might seem bizarre, but we live in bizarre times. At a moment like the present—when American politics is wildly polarized and unstable, populist fervor has gripped the right and left, and the economy continues to flatline—it’s worth contemplating how much weirder things might get in 2012, and whether that weirdness could be so extreme as to make the unthinkable thinkable.

It could happen?
Everyone thought that Hitler was a freakin' joke too, in the 1920's.

It's fun to watch, isn't it? All this useless venting and fuming keeping her name front and center on page 1 on C-D. Too many Joy Behar posts lately, gotta drag Sara back into the spotlight.
Can't someone start a Fox News or Glenn Beck thread to mix it up a bit?
How about another gay thread?
Some Ernie and Bert "news" anyone?
