...First she???s going to have to survive the next few weeks. Anonymous sources from within the McCain campaign are popping up everywhere in the media, accusing Palin of throwing tantrums, of not knowing that Africa was a continent, of being a profligate spender. There's always a circular firing squad after a losing campaign, and Palin is standing right in the middle of this one. RNC lawyers are coming to Alaska to hold her to account for some of the more than $150,000 spent on clothing and luggage. The first step in plotting her future is finding...
...rescue! The movie, written and directed by Saturday Night Live scribe Michael McCullers, dares to imagine that somewhere in this world of carelessly, ceaselessly fertile females there might be one woman who wants a baby but can?t have it.

She???s also smart enough to overcome the garbage education daytime TV has saddled her with. The meeting of disparate souls brings with it the inevitable apology swap. Kate: ?I?m sorry I called you stupid.? Angie: ?I?m sorry I farted into your purse...
...killed Bruce Lee.? (It was more likely a brain aneurysm.) Angie/Amy may lose this debate on points but she wins on presentation, because she looks slim, radiant, great. If junk food is what got her that body, plenty of women watching will say, ?I?ll have what she???s having...
