Remember Sarah Palin? Caribou Barbie? The single worst pick the GOP has ever made for Vice-President? The one who has turned her narcissism into an industry? Well, after her wise decision to use the GOP race solely as a way to get her face on TV, she dropped out of sight.

But her fans? They've become a cult. I am not kidding. Read this, with all the comments. These people, who seem to be otherwise able to function in society, seem to think that one ad will lead to a national revolution, the GOP flopping over, millions pouring in for a campaign that the candidate has specifically refused to enter, and either a coup at the Republican Convention of a wildly successful independent campaign putting Palin in the White House. They are nuts. Seriously. Ron Paul supporters make more sense than what I'm reading here.

One wonders what they'll do when she says no again.

Sweel up and explode themselves? [I am specifically recalling the scene with Thunder from 'Big Trouble in Little China']

I'm thinking more like the androids in Mudd's Women. With smoke coming out of their ears.

Good gods. I went from there to comments on Perry's latest faux pas on the Dallas Morning News website. I can feel the crazy cooties...

I say we should gather up the Palinites, Paultards and the hardcore Firefly fans in a big cage and let 'em all have it out to the death.

The firefly fans would win, they have a stronger relationship with reality.

You most likely haven't encountered the same ones I have.

(I'm still mildly surprised a few of 'em didn't resort to forcing people into the theaters at gunpoint when Serenity underperformed at the box office. And I was first in line on opening day, so it sure as hell wasn't my fault.)

Right, and if THEY are more attune with reality than the others ...

Well, yes, this indeed I can see.
