Quick note on Campaign 2008:

Legendary television game show host Pat Sajak announced his pick for president: former US Senator Fred Dalton Thompson of Tennessee. Sajak, the smug and snarky host of the long-running insipid - yet popular - TV program Wheel Of Fortune, announced decison sometime in November.

In endorsing Thomspon, a former Washington politician and motion picture character actor, Pat Sajak stated "If any group of citizens is uniquely unqualified to tell someone else how to vote, it's those of us who live in the sheltered, privileged arena of celebrityhood." Despite his esteemed status among Hollywood icons, S*j*k, who is also a former weatherman for Los Angeles-area television stations, also said Thompson's decision to announce his candidacy on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno was a key factor in securing the game show host's coveted endorsement.

Political observers (okay, just the SB Insider) suggest It is highly likely Pat Sajak endorsement will improve Thompson's fortunes (Get it, fortunes?) as he heads into crucial election contests in Iowa and New Hampshire. How Fred Dalton Thompson's rivals for the GOP presidential nomination will react to this stunning and significant development remains unclear, but it is obvious that this is an amazing endorsement for the retired federal lawmaker.

Now, if only Thompson could afford to purchase televison air time to boast of Pat Sajak's support...
