Some might identify Tina Fey more often than Palin, too. <br /><br />Leno used to prove over and over during his "Jaywalking" segments that the American Public doesn't know politics. <br /><br />Sheen and Rosie carry far more clout than Sarah and John. <br /><br />But you already knew that, didn't you?wamknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27612105.post-9642905679159167702009-08-18T09:39:14.482-07:002009-08-18T09:39:14.482-07:00You know what these people have in common?

Though if you insist on calling this equivilent, I'm happy to equate Sarah Palin to Charlie Sheen. They're both good-lookin and have some very juicy scandals lurking in their backgrounds. <br /><br />Sheen, of course, is more articulate.piker62https://www.blogger.com/profile/10976799832683250524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27612105.post-67537261902027231552009-08-18T09:35:00.690-07:002009-08-18T09:35:00.690-07:00Have you ever heard of Rosie O'Donnell?
