Letterman smacks around the ticket

Dave's Top Ten about McCain/Palin:

Number Ten: "Sarah Palin is right now training for tomorrow's vice presidential debate in Arizona. And she says it's really helped her on foreign policy, because from Arizona she can see Mexico."
Number Nine: "John McCain watched the debate and he loved Sarah Palin's performance. As a matter of fact, he applauded so much that all the lights in his house kept going on and off."
Number Eight: "This just in: a hiker has found the wreckage of the McCain campaign."
Number Seven: "You know, I gave up drinking a while ago, but I started again. And I'm watching the debate last night and here's what I did; I did a shot every time McCain said 'my friends.' So I'm blotto."
Number Six: "Tom Brokaw tells Obama and McCain that they were going to now answer questions that came in over the Internet. McCain said, 'Uh, Tom, is that the same as the telegraph?' "
Number Five: "At one point John McCain referred to Barack Obama as 'that one'. 'That one'. 'That one'. And McCain later apologized. He said he got confused. He thought he was at the bakery. 'Uh, a couple of crullers... uh, that one... and, uh, that one.' "
Number Four: "We like Sarah Palin, right? She's a lot of fun. Miss Alaska. She's saying that she doesn't know who Barack Obama really is. Doesn't know who Barack Obama is. That's interesting. She also doesn't know who Sarkozy, Gordon Brown, Kim Jong Il, Hugo Chavez, Vladimir Putin, and Osama bin Laden are... the list goes on and on."
Number Three: "John McCain says he's going to win. John McCain is going to win the third presidential debate. Of course, he also told Custer that the surge was working."
Number Two: "John McCain is going to take this opportunity to unveil his new campaign persona. His new campaign personality, to really energize the last couple of weeks of the campaign. Fighting Underdog. Fighting Underdog. That's John McCain and the campaign. And if that doesn't work, then he's going to go to Sadistic Yard Dog."
and, finally, Number One: "You heard what happened at a rally yesterday? Sarah Palin mistook some of her supporters for hecklers. And you know, confusion happens in all walks of life. For example, a few weeks ago, John McCain mistook her for a legitimate candidate."

Rico says it's all too bitterly true... (And that'll teach McCain to not show up.)
