Well. Imagine that. (please notice the flat tone, the unsurprised voice, and 
the near catatonic verbalizations.)

Things that make one go Hmmmm.....
And Palin is still looking at the presidency? Perhaps not....though that 
presumes she and the religious right have half a brain. That, of course, is 
questionable.
