1. Simple Sarah makes a better comedian than a politician, which isn't saying much.

2. ok..what's funny is nothing is supposed to leave the room, but all the journalists are twittering

Ms. Palin, the Republican vice presidential candidate under Senator John McCain of Arizona last year, is one of two guests speakers, who in years past were invited to provide typically humorous speeches. The other speaker this year is Representative Barney Frank, the liberal Democrat from Massachusetts. It’s difficult to imagine two people who have more diametrically opposed view of the world (not to mention personalities and senses of humor). All the ingredients for an absorbing evening of theater and politics.

Except these dinners are strictly off-the-record. Nothing that happens is supposed to leave the room — though with journalists being journalists, and Washington being Washington, it’s a good bet that you’ll be hearing something about this by Sunday morning. Perhaps Ms. Palin will break the news and boast of her appearance at the dinner to her Twitter followers.

3. Funny, DC insider joke.

You can see the Russian embassy from just about anywhere in DC and Arlington. It commands a position on a prominent hill with a clear line of site to the U.S. Capitol, Pentagon, Whitehouse and more. Who ever gave the Russians that real estate really screwed the pooch.

4. blah!

"At press dinner Palin "joked" person next to her on plane looked at picture of obama and chinese leader and asked which one is the communist."~~ Andrea Mitchell's tweet. I can only assume that by "joked" she meant, it wasn't a joke.

Maybe you had to be there, but a lot of her "jokes" seem more like the passive aggressive barbs she's known for.
