"Delusions of Grandeur"


Mike Lupica gives the ultimate post-mortem on Winky You Betcha's palm-reading performance at the teabagger Nutfest in Nashville, her "delusions of grandeur," and her phoniness in dealing with the "retard" kerfuffle. The nail- on- the- head grab: in skewering her as a faux conservative "thinker," Lupica reminds us of the Palin-appropriate line from "All About Eve" where the ambitious Eve Harrington is said to be akin to "a piano thinking it wrote the concerto." Beautiful.

UPDATE: Speaking of the "retard" kerfuffle, Colbert had the appropriate response last night.
