I haven’t been in much of a blogging mood lately beyond NCAA Picks. It is worth noting that — barring another mishap of some sort — I’ll be having my wisdom tooth surgery for real on Monday. More on that in my original post about it.

Larry Kudlow: I want to start with this, an oddball question. Senator McCain says it’s too pristine to drill, Senator Obama says the drilling won’t work. What is your response to this? How do you fight back?

Sarah Palin: Well, it will work. And Senator McCain is wrong on that issue.


Just throwing that out there.
