"What this election proved is that performance doesn't matter"

[Not Me]

-Pat Schroeder from Colorado, a panelist on this week's Real Time with Bill Maher.

For those of you who missed it on Friday, this was probably the best Real Time episode ever! Bill had Alan Simpson --who was apparently sippin' the same kool aid as Zel Miller-- going off on a tirade. At one point Bill asked him if he wanted to settle it with a duel.

Other panelist: Andrew Sullivan, and D.L. Hughley.

It's being recast at 12:40am Eastern tonight (okay technically early Monday morning). Set the vcrs.

1. That would be 1240 pm, I take it? nt

2. No, a majority of voters thought performance does matter,

and therefore voted for Kerry, but the results were tampered with by Karl Rove et al. I wouldn't watch Bill Maher's clown show even if I did subscribe to HBO.
