Funny, no?

The last YearlyKos Keynote Dinner is kicking off with the requisite political comedians whose premises actually aren't that funny--i.e. America has, like, run out of people who care, Bush is bad with grammar (granted, this is true and could be funny in not-so-smug hands), and Walter Cronkite was a great newsman. But what was really interesting to me is when Hillary's picture was projected on the big screens, big boos. Even after a solid debate performance and breakout session where she clearly won over a few critics...nothing. Hillary Hate in motion apparently stays in motion here in Chicago. It'll be fun to watch them turn that ship around if she winds up the nominee.

A female comedian just said after watching An Inconvenient Truth and discovered "Al Gore makes me feel warm in my underpants."

Hmm. Might be a long night.

UPDATE: Yep. Another female comedian is now joking about her crush on Joe Wilson--a "silver-haired fox"--who she says, "had me at 'What I didn't find in Africa.'"
