Um, McCaskill was just elected in 2006. Of COURSE she's a low-ranking senator. Everyone has to go through it. Hell, Obama's not that high-ranking in the Senate either. Plus, McCaskill has repeatedly denied any interest in the VP spot. An example from The Hill: "If I were asked, I would ask some mental health professionals to visit Barack Obama. I just think Sen. Obama is way too smart to pick me. I'm not a good pick, and he's smarter than that. That's why he's going to make such a good president."

WHAT?

I'm sorry, but while questioning Colin Hanks's talent is one thing (although I think he is pretty talented), I don't see how you can call him shameless. He's been pretty good at distancing himself from his dad for the most part. And Kristen Gore was a writer for, as you said, the National Lampoon and the Simpsons, and her books are pretty funny, so I'm not sure where you get the 'untalented' from there. Lumping those two in the same category as Paris Hilton is absolutely undeserved and ridiculous.

Finally, Miley Cyrus talented? I think not.
