Tie: Orange, with a pattern. Keith, Mom says it’s weird that your ties often don’t match your shirts. Of course, Sipowicz’ didn’t either, but I’m sure you’re not aiming to copy Dennis Franz’s look.

Segue: The Wonder Woman theme.

Worst Person:Roger Ailes, or should I say “You-Know-Who”(don’t want him to appear or anything) for firing an intern enthused about John McCain. And, oddly, he was not discriminating against someone with a brain injury(I made that part up.)

5.Hillary Clinton may be staying in the race to pay herself back, but Jonathan Alter doesn’t really think so. Still the “steady trickle” of superdelegate support toward the senator from Illinois has caused luminaries such as Rahm Emanuel and John Edwards to treat Obama as the nominee.
5a. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid(D–NV) joins Keith by satellite to talk about “unneccessary” telecom immunity and why Lieberman still has his committee assignments.

4. Okay, before I write about the McCain story, may I confess the Lieberman remark about “bearings” is giving me slashy McCain/ Lieberman thoughts against my will? Mr. Olbermann, whom should I bill for the brain bleach? Yourself or the network, because, ew. If we still had the Geneva convention, that ought to be on it.
In slightly less weird news, Arianna Huffington stands behind her account of what the McCains told her about their 2000 ballots. Rachel Maddow says this is an odd fight for a candidate to pick if he is trying to highlight the differences between himself and an unpopular incumbent.

Best Persons Someday, this will be as incomprehensible to future generations as “Kill Castro with exploding cigars,” is to me. It’s not that I didn’t trust Keith, but I still didn’t believe this till I read it myself. Better check the dosage on those beta-blockers….Dick.

Oddball: Makes me feel old by revealing it has been nineteen years since “It’s a terrible thing to lose one’s mind.” That same year, I got called a bleeding-heart in civics for the first time.(You never forget your first time.)

3. Pat Tillman’s mother Mary joins Keith, and despite her polished demeanor, her pain is almost palpable and I end up turning my face away several times during the segment. Anyone who could or would pile onto that, deserves to be spoken of mostly in expletives, in my humble opinion.

2.Worst Persons:
Worse: The supervisors of a Phillps gas station for letting an employee go for having too much in the safe, even after the station was robbed.

Worser: BillO, for continuing to project his Olbermann…issues onto GE(Be fair Keith, even his people would get tired of “Keith Olbermann is a big smarty-pants meaniehead. “)Eventually.

1. I love it when Keith gets fanboy, and his interview with comedic legendMort Sahl is no exception. It’s at a time like this when Olbermann is at his most relatable, without doing some gushy Oprah thing.
