If Only...

I try not to veer too much into U.S. Politics here, but I can't always help myself. Last month, Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank pushed for a media boycott of Sarah Palin for the month of February. I threw my support behind that, if only because the woman is entirely too exposed for currently being nothing more than a pundit. She's a former politician that gets paid for speeches and talking about issues on TV, like any number of people that fit that broad category but have only a fraction of the press.
Whether or not Milbank and others that took his pledge succeed is one thing, but the other is the fertile, comedic ground it offered to the gang at Funny or Die. Here, we see the results of a month with out Palin as it impacts the "former Governor." Gina Gershon plays Palin, and she does do a pretty good job of channeling the Wonder of Wasilla. Check it out for yourself below:
