Looks Like McCain Has Competition For Media-Love

Outstanding parody and/or verbatim transcript (who can tell?) of Chris Matthews and Andrea Mitchell swooning over Barack Obama:

Mitchell Well, Chris, as I'm sure you've heard, there's been quite a bit of talk about Barbara Boxer today.

Matthews
There sure has.

Mitchell
Well, take a look at this.

Mitchell
Now, Chris, we've both been in Washington long enough to be able to read that look. It's obvious that she's thinking "Wow, this man, Barack Obama, is really amazing. I've been in the Senate a long time, and I've seen people come and go, but this is certainly one of the most impressive people I have seen, not only in my time in the Senate, but in my life."

Matthews
Isn't it amazing how some people can be so expressive without saying a word?

Mitchell
It certainly is. And take a look at this.

Mitchell
Now, here we have Senator Chuck Hagel, who is obviously thinking, "Barack Obama is such an amazing orator and outstanding statesman, that I'd better do everything I can to look my best when I'm up here with him, including making sure that everything around me is as tidy as it can be."

In related news, John McCain is planning a major speech to win back the love of the liberal media, tentatively titled, "Ronald Reagan: 40th President or #1 Douchebag?"

Good stuff, Wuzzadem.

One of these days I really have to start being funny again. I really do.
