Governor Palin on Weekend Update
John McCain's running mate, the Governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin made an appearance on Saturday Night Live this weekend. Palin showed a credible sense of humor and it was SNL's highest ready show in 14 years. As the New York Times reviewer put it, "One thing everybody can agree on is that Gov. Sarah Palin is qualified — to someday host her own television show."

Who's the plumber?
Joe the plumber from Ohio got more air time than Iraq last night at the presidential debate. He doesn't look like the Joe Six Pack we pictured. McCain used him to bludgeon Obama on tax policy, declaring it was a bad time to raise taxes on anybody. Obama turned it around to point at McCain's dangerous and ill-advised health care plan, and his support for taxes cuts for the uber-rich. (Though as McCain noted, Joe the Plumber is no Warren Buffett.)
So who is the real Joe the Plumber?
Here are a couple of links to read about him.
