1. No way, The Rock should play Barack.

3. Close your eyes and listen to Barack and The Rock speak. You couldn't tell the difference.
Though Barack should totally call people jabronies more often.

4. Alright, I hear what you're saying.
But Will Smith would look a bit more similar. Barack needs to eat a cheeseburger now and then.

6. do you listen to 98.1 Rock in Baltimore?
the last couple mornings they've been playing clips of the Rock and Barack back to back. It's funny how similiar their cadence is.

The best part is when they do McCain as Dr. Evil. You can't tell the difference, it's hillarious.

7. How about that "W" movie?
The real one, directed by Oliver Stone, starring Josh Brolin as Moron and Richard Dreyfuss as Cheney. "Kinda soon" or "ah, why not?"

8. For Palin: Jessica Lange.
She has that spacey/scary look. Reese is much too like-able. For McLumpy I like Robert Duvall, just let him show up with that wrinkly face and give the make-up crew the day off.

9. Ooh, good pick. Duvall as McCain.
Reese is a great actress, she could pull off Sarah Palin.
