MSNBC’s Chris Matthews may get a thrill up his leg when Barack Obama speaks, but he trembles with fear at the mere thought of “President Sarah Palin.” In fact, he says they’re the three scariest words in the English language.
“For tens of millions of Americans, not just Democrats, the scariest three words in the English language are: ‘President Sarah Palin.’”
We’re still not sure where we stand on Sarah Palin, but conceptually, we think she’s probably far more effective as a gadfly than she would be as a president.
Nevertheless, we can think of three other words that should be far more frightening for Chris Matthews than “President Sarah Palin.” Those three words are “the latest ratings.”
