Denny and Alan in “Mad Cows”

Denny

You know what your problem is?

Alan

Yeah, a collapsing economy, two wars....

Denny

No, Democrats don't know how to win, Republicans do.

Alan

Maybe instead of so smugly celebrating that Republicans know how to win, might you be at the least bit disgusted at the tactics that they resort to?

Denny

Oh, please.

Alan

The despicable pandering like supporting gas tax holidays or cozying up to the Evangelicals or the most egregious example of political pandering in memory: John McCain's choice in running mate.

Denny

Well... she's run... something.

Alan

What? A town called Wasilla? Which she left in debt?

Denny

She had executive experience including foreign policy.

Alan

Foreign policy? Because she can see Russia on a clear day? Can she even spell "Russia?"

Denny

She's just as qualified.

Alan

Denny, she couldn't name newspaper she read or Supreme Court decision

Denny

Gossip journalism.

Alan

Gossip journalism? Naming a Supreme court case?

Denny

This isn't about Palin, it's about McCain.

Alan

What if, what if he dies?

Denny

Who?

Alan

McCain! Of the last 19 Administrations, almost half, half had situations where the Vice President had to assume Presidential responsibilities; in fact- complete control.

Denny

Reagan had Alzheimer's, his a approval ratings were up-.

Alan

Denny, John McCain is 72! He would be the oldest person ever to assume office. He's ripe for a heart attack, not to mention, he's had Melanoma four times. There's a very real possibility he could die. And then what? We'd be left with Sarah Palin? Is there really anyone anywhere that's okay with that?!

Denny

Yes! They're called Americans! The Joe six-pack -

Alan

Joe six-pack needs someone to fix the economy not have a beer with!

Denny

I don't hear anything other from Obama.

Alan

You don't hear anything at all from John McCain. His own camp says "don't talk about it." Instead, we'll just go negative.

Denny

Oh, Obama's gone negative too.

Alan

Bulldog Palin said that Obama pounced around with terrorists.
