Palin Booed by Hockey Fans? Oh, Yes They Did!

This weekend, I ran across several blog posts contending that Sarah Palin was booed at a Philadelphia Flyers hockey game. She was dropping the puck at the beginning of the game, and supposedly the audience loudly booed her. But the problem was, the crowd noise was intermixed with loud music, and the sound quality of the clips were poor.

Many people concluded that this was an overblown attempt at a "gotcha" moment, and that any booing was incidental. Well, another video, from higher up in the nosebleed section says different. Maybe not a big deal, but it's always noteworthy to have one of these fringey stories confirmed one way or the other.

Norm Coleman vs. Al Franken and. . .Hockey?

Here's a tip to Senator Norm Coleman from Minnesota: don't try comedy in your commercials when your opponent is an actual comedian! I live in Nevada, so I don't have a say, but I'd absolutely vote for Al Franken. If only for the comedic value in the Senate. It's way too dour in there.
