Tigh/Roslin '08

    In what has quickly become a mini-meme among Battlestar Galactica aficionados, John McCain and Sarah Palin are being closely compared - both in appearance and political profile - to two of the show's main characters, troubled alien Col. Tigh and feisty President Laura Roslin.

    If you ask me, the only "toaster" trotting around Washington has got to be Laura Frakking Bush. As far as I'm concerned, she's got nothing but two dead eyes, a pained smile, and some excellent inner wiring.
