Wolf Blitzer: Sidney Who?

Credit Snoopyjode from The Sidney Crosby Show for digging up the following random clip. Earlier this month, Wolf Blitzer was interviewing former Republican Congressman Dick Armey and Democratic strategiest Donna Brazile on CNN's Situation Room. At the 1:42 mark, Armey drops Sidney Crosby's name and suggests that if Hillary Clinton could gain his endorsement, it could carry her to victory in the Pennsylvania Democratic Primary.

At the 2:09 mark a puzzled Blitzer asks Armey, "Who's Sidney Crosby?":



As we noted yesterday, the Pennsylvania Democratic Primary, which seems like it's been going on forever, will be held tomorrow. And as for Armey's analysis -- which according to the YouTube page was dispensed a couple of weeks ago -- some folks in the Eastern part of the state might actually go for a Daniel Briere endorsement.

Charles Barkley 'Promises' to Run for Alabama Governor in 2014

It feels like it's been all Charles Barkley all week long (he's been in Playboy, he's lost over a comma gambling), which is fantastic. Almost as fantastic as the idea of him running for governor of Alabama in 2014, which is what he told Wolf Blitzer this afternoon in the CNN Situation Room (Update - Now with video). In fact, Barkley went so far as to point out that he purchased a home in the state last year and that he was going to fulfill all the talk that we have heard about him diving headfirst into politics.



BARKLEY: Well, I just bought a house in 2007. And in 2014, I promise you I'm going to run for governor of Alabama.
Some people begrudge Charles for his willingness to be forthright about basically any issue he that he feels passionate about, but for the most part, people think that Barkley is a charismatic, honest individual that happens to be famous. Both of these opinions develop out of some of the statements that Charles makes while on television, like the following excerpts from the above interview.
