Hillary & Kumar Escape From Baby Obama Mama

Sometimes it seems like the question frequently posed by the media, "Who is more electable, Hillary or Obama?" is simply code for asking, "Is America more sexist, or more racist?"

This weekend we may have a chance to find out. Two comedies are opening - one, Harold & Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay, starring two Non-White Americans, and the other, Baby Mama, starring two Non-Male Americans. I daresay whichever movie motivates more people to leave their homes to buy tickets might be a good indicator of which candidate will motivate more voters to show up at the polls.

If you are right, C.J, then it's Hillary all the way.

Huh?

The H&K ads showing them buddying up to a fake Bush can't help the boxoffice.

But H&K also has the wonderful Beverly D'Angelo, whom I hadn't seen in years - an apparent homage to the road comedies of an earlier decade.
