I first came across DW Diaz — the oblivious, hipster starlet/actress/model/designer who is the alter-ego of comedian Daniella Pineda — on Twitter.

If yesterday's parade of McCain surrogates defending Sarah Palin — in between blaming Barack Obama for the failure of the bailout plan that McCain insisted on coming to D.C. to personally negotiate for the sake of The Country! — didn't make it clear, the media is to blame for the massive suckitude of Ms. Palin.
