LATE NIGHT GOP WARS: Letterman Pits Mitt Romney Against Leno's Sarah Palin
The Deadline ^ | 2/25/10 | staff

Posted on 02/25/2010 7:09:51 PM PST by pissant

Jay Leno made news when he announced that Sarah Palin will be among his high-profile guests when he returns to The Tonight Show next week (aka "The Jaysurrection"). Now David Letterman's lineup for next week pits Mitt Romney against Sarah Palin on Tuesday night -- and the ratings may well provide clues on which probable GOP presidential contender may be most popular. The week's lineup for Letterman's Late Show are: MONDAY, Bill Murray; TUESDAY, Mitt Romney; WEDNESDAY, Jerry Seinfeld and Tom Brokaw; THURSDAY, Tom Hanks; and FRIDAY, Matt Damon. Leno's first week of guests are: MONDAY, Jamie Foxx, Olympic Gold Medal Skier Lindsey Vonn; TUESDAY, Sarah Palin, Olympic Gold Medal Snowboarder Shaun White; WEDNESDAY, "Jaywalk All-Stars” with the Cast of MTV's Jersey Shore, Chelsea Handler, and the most decorated American Winter Olympian of all time Speed Skater Apolo Anton Ohno; THURSDAY, Matthew McConaughey and Jason Reitman; FRIDAY, Morgan Freeman and Meredith Vieira.

You’d think Romney was planning to run for the Democrat nomination in ‘12.

same here and Leno having the major olympians on as well as Palin seals the lineup for me... plus I can’t stand Letterman and I actually like Leno.

You know, I really do not understand why Romney does not change Parties. Romney may or may not be able to win the Republican nomination, but Democrats are not going to vote for a Republican no matter how liberal he is. Romney would stand a much better chance of becoming President by running as a Democrat. Thankfully, Mitt will not run as a Democrat and he will probably never become President.

It depends if Mitt is bringing pizza. He and Jeb got 50 people to show up once that way.

Mitt lost to Ron Paul at CPAC.....ROFLMAO....

I wouldn’t even show up for pizza.

And RP winning the straw at CPAC is proof that CPAC is no longer ‘C’.

The ratings for Sarah Palin on Leno will smoke Romney on Letterman with room to spare.

NAH, every mormon in the US will be tuned into Letterman for the first and only time in his life. There's probably a letter going out from Salt Lake today "suggesting" it.

People will switch from one to the other and say, Those two would look great together running in '12. Mitt & Sarah, yayyyy.....

Palin supports McCain, so does Romney and other RINOs. And McCain will surely support Willard ; where does that leave Sarah, unless she honestly does 'go rogue'! There won't be any 'loyalty' for her to consider, and she can kiss McBailout goodbye.

A sorry state of affairs & reflection on our idiot culture when potential candidates for President think they have to go on shows where they have been ridiculed and joked about endlesslly.

They won't.
Conservatives can't stand the pervert and child sex abuser David Letterman.

Palin supports McCain, so does Romney”

So does Fred Thompson.

Why would any real conservative ever
watch backstabber Willard?

OTOH, Norquist, Keene, the rest of the DNC, DU,
and al Qaeda will certainly tune in to their best hope
after the undocumented Obama.

I agree with you. Leno’s ratings will trounce Letterman’s ratings on this night.

I would love to see Letterman get Obama for that night. This would be more interesting.
