I was thinking it would be Cheers up against The Simpsons...I don't know. If it is Arrested Development, I'm going to take some solace that it'll feel like a stand-in for Larry Sanders--besides Jeffrey Tambor, it's the same creators, right?
Sorry, nostalgia--my first-ever game live, Anaheim Stadium in July, '69. My dad would drive me crazy trying to get me to take pictures like this--he did the same thing with Bench at spring training in 1972--but 40 years later, of course, I'm as grateful as could be. Not exactly a great view of the park.
The two films I most associate with being a kid are The Ten Commandments (on TV) and To Sir with Love (at the drive-in).
On the other hand, with the Tea Party, I can definitely see where him getting anywhere near the nomination would trigger hysteria...Here's hoping for a real brawl.
For what it's worth, and from what I remember: Romney was far and away the most disliked guy by the other 2008 Republican candidates--McCain and Huckabee in particular zeroed in on him. If it turns out he's polling better for a general than whoever's against him, the self-preservation instinct may take over and some of that may be less pointed this time. (McCain comes off horribly in that clip.)
I hope you're right. I want Obama to win, and I see Romney as one guy who I believe can beat him in a general. If they head in the other direction, great.
personally I think it will be fatal; every debate will be him defending it 10 times against disdainful opponents. Remember that crazy New Hampshire debate where it was practically a friar's club roast?
That would be a problem today, for sure. But what if, by late 2011, everyone realizes that the sky didn't fall in, and HCR is viewed (even, without ever saying so, by a lot of Republicans) as more or less a success? If McCain navigated his way around immigration, I don't see how health care automatically becomes fatal for Romney. It may be, but I don't think you can say that today.

My friend gets a pass through her job, and she always passes one or two tickets along to me. So I'm going to see the Frederick Wiseman film on boxing clubs, hopefully the screening where he's there.
Um, Greg.
Olympic was weird, yeah...I saw Maddux beat the Expos in approx. two hours flat.
Search Again... Next...
