The Maverick and The Messiah


The Alfred E. Smith dinner ocurred last week--but you probably already heard about it. You haven't? Well, you're not alone. I found out last night a friend of mine hadn't heard about it either,so I figured it was worthwhile to write a post about it. The Alfred E. Smith dinner is thrown by the Catholic Archdiocese of NY for the benefit of children's charities. More importantly, the dinner was a chance for McCain and Obama to showcase some of the funniest political humor around-- and it didn't involve The Daily Show, SNL, or The Colbert Report. Both men delivered incredibly witty speeches. Whoever wrote their speeches has a career in comedy in their future if they don't already. I was unable to find out who wrote the speeches. If anybody finds out, let us know.
