Of course, his brilliant plan was: chop off his arm, run into Jack "Show me your head!"

And who knew the 25th Amendment was so simple? The President and the Vice-President each get to talk for, oh, 30 seconds or so, and then the Cabinet votes? Sheesh - the contestants on American Idol get more time to plead their cases than that. By the way, has the Palmer-Daniels administration's party ever been mentioned? There's just no way Daniels could possibly be a Democrat - the last time a Democrat was this assertive militarily was LBJ - but I sure thought that David Palmer was mentioned as a Democrat. How on Earth did Daniels get on the ticket?
Oh, well - pretty entertaining while you're watching it, but like much of 24, it doesn't stand up to any thought. I'm hoping we're about done with the Daniels plot thread for a while.
Oh, and The Shield finally starts up again tonight. Finally!!!!
