Palin Outdoes Colbert (also the PRC and Kim Jung-Il)

I wake up this morning to the cnn.com breaking news banner of "Crowd's clothes form flag as backdrop for Palin's Florida event". Hey Sarah, did you know that that's what the former U.S.S.R. leaders used to do to hold a rally? Did Palin watch the Olympics in Beijing and say to herself that those communists sure know how to throw a pretty rally? Did she drop by Kim Jung-Il's a few days ago or something? What made her think that this was a great idea? It would have been worthwhile though if Palin crowdsurfed on the audience flag like some faux-punk popstar at a concert.

Just a few months ago the McCain Palin camp was decrying Obama as an empty, celebrity, Hollywood type and put out that commercial with Obama juxtaposed Paris Hilton. Yeah, the McCain campaign sure is consistent with the message it sends out.
