"Take off your top!"

Boy I sure hope if she gets blasted on tequila shooters, Bill Clinton doesn't slap her around and bend her over the trunk of a car. You know what happened to the last guy who tried that.

No way she would settle for putting some ice on it.

From the pic on Drudge, she's got plenty of gravitases. Where'd she buy those things? Dr. Rey?

I hadn't seen her in so long, I though it was Julia Roberts (who I have this instinctive hate for, as she looks like a camel). Kinda made me not want to click the link, so I didn't. thanks for the scoop, Ace.

See also, Hillary Clinton running in 2008.
They're priming the pump already.

Of course that could backfire on them if Condi Rice decides to run...

... or, one supposes if anyone actually looks at Hillary Clinton's RECORD.

Can we all please agree, right now, that the term "jumped the shark" has itself long ago "jumped the shark", (ignoring the metaphysical impossiblity of that event, of course)?

I don't know if I can agree. I still find it a convenient shorthand for saying something I don't know how to say otherwise.

Too much information-- now that's really bad. And so is the follow-up "TMI." And so is the attempt at new way to say the same stupid thing, "over-sharing."

But "jump the shark"? I gotta say I still like it. I don't think it was ever actually said so much that it got burned out.

Didn't ABC already do this once?

Yep, Hail to the Chief.

The first woman President of the United States finds her role of wife and mother is drastically changed when she's faced with handling world-shaking events while surrounded by a cabinet of crazies. Patty Duke stepped into the Norman Lear style of sitcom for the first time and did a pretty good job. her character, President Julia Mansfield had a husband who cheated on her, a son who got the chief of staff's daughter pregnant and dealt with a slew of goofy cabinet members. sounds like a great show to me! unfortunately, it was cancelled for no reason according to Patty Duke. this show was created by the prolific tv writer Susan Harris.

That one seemed to have lasted 7 eps, but then again it was up against the second half of Riptide.

In no way could Gena Davis ever make me think about Hillary. (didn't she used to be a victorias secrets model?)

Does anybody remember her from the "Buffalo Bill Show"?

Yeah, it makes sense.

Now that Geena has big, surgically enhanced breasts, Hollywood sees her as Presidential material.

Ace, you've gotten so fucking HUGE that an instalanche (from yesterday's Ted Steven's post) doesn't even bump your stats all that much. More a speedbump than a spike.

Damn, boss. You'sa crazy bigtime.

Love your body, Larry.

Oh boy... another round of quotes.

"He just gives you that look."

"Yeah, you know-- he just gives you that look."

hobby,

Your analysis is, sadly, wrong.

A good Instapundit link-- like the one he gave me-- posted at the right time of the day (i.e., during working hours) can generate 1000-2000 visits an hour.

Trouble is, the link, great as it was, came in last night during very non-peak hours, and was so buried by this morning that it only produced maybe 200 extra hits per hour, tops.

Trust me-- an Instapundit link can easily zoom my numbers into the stratosphere (or my definition of the stratosphere, anyway). It was just that this link was mis-timed as far as maximum impact.

First, Ace-- I'd cheer this show to the rooftops if President Davis has a maggot for the first daughter.

Second, to RW-- good catch on Hail to the Chief. Sadly, I actually remember that show. Why I wasn't watching the zany adventures of the Riptide crew at the time, I have no idea.

As for whether this is a good idea. . . no? Can we all agree on no? As a starting point, perhaps?

I dunno who said it in the Corner this morning, but whomever did was brilliant: the Left will get more excited about a *fantasy* female President than a *real, live* female Secretary of State. A *black* female Secretary of State.

Oh, and let's not mention women in Afghanistan and Iraq voting and holding power. Yawn.

I knew the Left likes to live in a fantasy world, but c'mon. . . this is a stretch, don't ya think?

Cheers,
Dave at Garfield Ridge

I was really only teasing about Jumping The Shark. It is pretty catchy, still!

Too bad about the poor insty placement, ace.

I will say this: Compare your traffic stats and OChub's (who isn't even listed on the first page of a Google search for his name, for cripe's sake! hahahaha) over the last year (esp since January).

That'll make you smile

your preview ate my HTML >: (

You know..I'd watch this show if they built an episode around the White House being haunted by the ghosts of Abe Lincoln and Beetlejuice.

But that's just me.

Actually, I think it is the prospect of a Hillary candidacy that dooms this show in advance. It would be like pitching a comedy about wacky wannabe terrorists in early 2001. Even if the pitch were greenlighted the show concept would be in unacceptably bad taste by the time the pilot was ready.

hobgoblin,

your blasted incompetency at reading a chart has caused me heartache. Willis THRASHED me in traffic in January and February. Before that, we were sort of evenish.

Eh, Ace. Just keep posting, eventually you'll get so big that an Instalance will cost you a drop in hits.
Personally I hope this Geena Davis show is a hit, a monster. Get everybody thinking about her and then the Hildebeest shows up. What a way to make a liberal guy into a straight ticket Republican.

Sadly, if Geena's show is preparation for a Hilary candidacy, she'll need ankle implant surgery.

And, let's be honest - who really wants to see that?

Oh, Jack, you goose. Ghosts are so 80's.

Really, there is only one way to improve any show on television, and that's by adding vampires or zombies.

Imagine 24...with Zombie Jack Bauer eating terrorist brains.
Or West Wing with a vampire Democrat President, flapping out of the White House at night and sucking the blood of innocent Washington ho's.

See? MUCH better.

I would just like to state, I believe in "The Contender" it turned out that Joan Allen did not actually participate in the gang bang. Just a little fact statement for clarity sake.

Meanwhile, the Geena Davis show will probably be one of those cases when the shark was jumped before the premiere, because there's no way I can buy her being President. Patty Duke in the early 80's, okay, maybe that I could buy.

I'd prefer seeing Judy Dench as Prime Minister of England.

"In a bold move, ABC has simultaneously announced both the date of the series' debut and its cancellation."

Great line ACE!

"I would just like to state, I believe in "The Contender" it turned out that Joan Allen did not actually participate in the gang bang. Just a little fact statement for clarity sake."

I know. But the movie was quite keen on establishing the principle that she could have, and that would be just fine.

It established this, you see, For Our Daughters.

RW:

You reminded me of "Hail to the Chief".

You owe me for that.
Big time.

Ace,

On the charts - that's why I became a lawyer (no math or graphs)

But seriously, the point I was making is that his trend is DOWN and your trend is UP (like with people, and shit)

His "spike" came from his little war with Wizbang and Jeff Jarvis, and at least one of those sites will never give him a post link again (I think)

So it's not all bad news, even with his temporary numbers. Just thank God I'm not your CPA

congrats mate! fine job and fine site!
