I've Been Thinking:

Full disclosure: I did not see Colin Powel on NBC's Meet the Press yesterday (I was delivering a lecture in Connecticut), but I did read the transcript.

I have a great deal of respect for Colin Powel.
I think he acted with tremendous honor and responsibility when he stepped down as Secretary of State.
I know that many Americans share my sentiment and respect for Powell.
I also know that very few Americans care about his endorsement and even fewer will be swayed by it.

Americans love the mass part of the mass media.
They do not really watch the Sunday talk shows, but they do watch Saturday Night Live.
Actually, 17 million people watched SNL because they knew Sarah Palin, the real one, would be making an appearance.
Actually, this SNL had one of the best ratings ever and that was due to Sarah Palin.

Say what you will, there is a significant Sarah Factor out there.
