It's just down because of all the hits. I just listened to it.

*spoiler alert*

the part where 'Sarkozy' says that France has the equivalent of Joe the Plumber, only it's Marcel the Guy with a loaf of bread under his arm pit slayed me b/c, when I went to France, that's what I noticed in Paris: everyone carrying loafs of unwrapped bread under their arm pits.

What also slayed me was the way she kept talking to Sarkozy as if campaigning. She'd try to launch into one of her typical bits, but the guy would cut her off. Also, she was oblivious to the way an American idiom might not translate to someone from another country.

I had to wonder if she'd even heard about Nailin Palin yet. She was either oblivious to knowledge of that porn flick or doing what women learn to do when something like that is raised in conversation. It was hard to tell.
