Overheard in Denver

By Will Durst, August 28, 2008

• “I just wish he’d go back to Barry.”

• “Get your mints. Free mints here. Impeach- mints.”

• “Oh no.” “What?” “Biden’s kid is named Beau.”

• “How come they’re all great states? How come nobody comes from a mediocre state?”

• “You sure that was Stephen Spielberg who directed that thing and not his brother Sheldon
Spielberg?"

• “I swear to god. Better sushi than you can get in Tokyo.” “In Denver?!”

• “How was the party?” “I don’t remember how I got home.” “That good hunh?”

• “I don’t care about any stupid amendment. I want Bill to run again. And again. And again.”

• “Shit.” “What?” “Yankees lost again.” “They’re out of it.”

• “Wow. Chevy Chase is old.”

• “Nice hat. Is the donkey supposed to be pooping on the elephant or just sitting on him?”

• “She was wearing the orange pant suit to symbolize the political prison that all women are invisibly in.”

• “He’s not black. He’s more of a mocha.”

• “What’s the deal with the bathrooms? The men’s rooms have lines but the women’s rooms don’t. What’s up with that?”

• “Hey, Biden got a haircut.”

• “She’s had some work done.” “Some? I think scaffolding was involved.”

• “Did you realize Obama backwards is Amabo?”

• “I think McCain has Alzheimer’s. No, really, I’m serious. He’s losing it.”

• “I can’t understand a single word he’s saying. But he sure looks damn good saying it.”

• “Sean Penn was dressed like a homeless guy.” “If I had been dressed like that, they would have kicked me out.” “They did kick you out.” “See.”
