The Overflow Bus, repository for outcasts, misfits, and journalistic bottom feeders. Bet they've got an omelet bar or something up there. You think Rather's up there talking policy with them? No, they're up there playing pinball, singing karaoke. Rather doesn't have to be on the Overflow Bus. Oh, I'm 60 minutes too. Be lucky if we even see him today. Don't throw it back. You just ate half of it.

I'd like you to take a look at the driver we have. Great. Thanks very much, Ron. You see what I mean? Okay, now step aboard. Here we go into our secondary bus. Take a whiff. Yeah, take a whiff of that. One whiff of the overflow bus and Mrs. McCain was on my side. Stick with me, I'll get you on. Really?
