If you ever thought Matt Damon was just a pretty boy actor, you might want to think again. He shows he’s got a lot more going on in this candid rant against John McCain’s selection of running mate, Sarah Palin.
It’s very easy to target Sarah Palin for her staunch anti-abortion views, her love of guns, or that small matter of her unwed pregnant teen daughter. But Matt gets to the heart of the matter: we don’t know a lot about her, and it’s a very real possibility that she could become President.
As Matt is quick to point out, what we do know about Sarah Palin doesn’t paint her in a particularly glowing light. She’s gone from small town mayor to large state with small population governor. Her meteoric rise is impressive, but is running things in Alaska really going to help her run a country?
He never actually says it but you can tell what Matt’s thinking: Obama’s looking better all the time.
