I agree that George Will is a supernerd. He has to throw baseball references in every other sentence - George, please stop it. You are more annoying than Ken Burns.

Will should just stick to writing about baseball now. I think these years next to Stephanopoulus have corrupted him.

Duvall was sticking it to George Will and all the other conservative commentators who are so far from what we live on a daily basis. They don’t understand or appreciate the significance of grassroots support of Palin and that old dude who picked her as running mate.

I agree. But I have to use one here.

At the final debate I want to see McCain/Papleborn come out of the bullpen, not McCain/Timlin.

It suffices to say he is as annoying as Ken Burns, than whom few are more annoying who pretend to have historian credentials. I have seen what I could stomach of both his 'Civil War' and his 'Baseball'. I hated both and recommend them to nobody. If George Will is that annoying, it should be entirely sufficient to exclude him.

Now, that said, George's intellect far surpasses Ken Burns', and he does know (and does love) baseball. That, in itself, helps me like him more than would otherwise be the case.

If there's someone whom I find more annoying than either it is the self-proclaimed Prince of Darkness, who has been a steady black cloud on this campaign right from the start.

“You are more annoying than Ken Burns.”

H-m-m. That might be a coin toss.
