I don't know whether to be amused or sad that the McCain/Palin campaign want to rip off the plot of The Birdcage and have Gov Palin's teenage daughter marry her baby daddy just before the election for ratings. Of course it will be a shotgun wedding as Gov Palin has already admitted she shoots things.
Me thinks this campaign has jumped the shark. You can always tell the ratings are tanking when producers go for the wedding, though they at least shook things up by having pregnancy episodes before the wedding episode. And of course Sarah will have to cut time out of her schedule for important things like security briefs and interviews with the press to plan the wedding and decide what lipstick to put on. I wonder what hijinks they have planned to go wrong that day for the traditional cold feet scene.
I think the season will end as a cliffhanger with Palin's son being shipped off to Iraq & the daughter going into labor. Left unanswered will be the important questions: Did Sarah or Todd have an affair? Is John ill? Did Sarah abuse her power? Will Levi be written out? What about Trigg? There is a real danger we won't find out what happens next if John & Sarah get canceled by voters in November, so vote McCain if you want to keep this soap opera running.
