    No One At Sarah Silverman's Obama Schlep, Including Sarah Silverman

    SafariScreenSnapz026.jpg So of the seven million people who watched Sarah Silverman's Web video promoting "the Great Schlep" to Florida to convince Jewish grandparents to vote for Barack Obama, how many do you think actually made it to the kickoff trek? Try 100, and from the sound of things in the Times this morning, half of them didn't even have any relatives down there to begin with, so they ended up just lecturing random elderly people, like this guy. What is Sarah Silverman, chopped liver?? Actually, it doesn't matter, since the comedian didn't even show up herself, so you can't exactly blame her fans for doing likewise. There are three more weekends left, prospective schleppers, assuming your grandparents haven't already mailed in an absentee ballot. If you do make the trip, don't forget to bring the official talking points, including the ones about how Obama is a very safe type of black person:

    Jesse "Hymietown" Jackson hates Obama — big plus! But the talking points should maybe include Jackson's description of just how much he hates the Democratic presidential nominee.

    And don't forget Sarah Palin, who has never even been to Israel.
