Seriously, this video is pretty much the ideal response to the whole thing. McCain’s campaign ought to be embarrassed, and the rest of us can laugh at both his campaign and Paris’s response.
(of course it is Paris Hilton, and she gets the details of the energy policy wrong… drilling wouldn’t carry us over because it would take 5-10 years before any of that oil actually entered the market)

I am impressed with both of them, her for coming on and him for trying to be direct. I had some concerns, which I outlined yesterday. Part 2 is where I think he started edging right up to (and perhaps slightly over) that line.
I love the Daily Show, and tonight I saw one of the most awkward interviews ever by Jon Stewart. He interviewed Lynne Cheney about her book and while doing so, really asked some tough questions about Dick Cheney and politics. They weren’t tough in that they were hard, but they were awkward questions. Stewart, to his credit, figured out why part way through: he was unfairly using Lynne Cheney as a proxy to ask questions he would rather ask the Vice President. It was unfair, but I can imagine that he was struggling because it was a rare opportunity to talk to someone with a real familiarity with the Vice President. I’ll post the video up when I find it.
Though I’m not a fan of the VP, I was glad Stewart backed off. Worth watching if you’re on the west coast tonight.
