Terrifyingly Good

By on 9.11.08 @ 8:34AM

If the prospect of Sarah Palin as vice president is enough to "terrify" Matt Damon, that's a very good thing. What America needs is more terrified movie stars. But doesn't it kind of undercut Damon's "Bourne" action-hero credentials, that he's terrified by the prospect of a fundamentalist small-town hockey mom in power? Action heroes shouldn't be so faint-hearted.
