Two conservative figures who are consistently ridiculed for grandiose, egotistical stupidity just gave comedians and commentators across the globe another reason to mock them: both recently announced interests in running for president. 

In a Wednesday, Nov. 17 interview, Sarah Palin stated she is considering a presidential run in 2012, a race she thinks she could win.

In interviews beginning last month, Donald "you're fired" Trump also declared interest in the Oval Office, in part because "we are no longer respected the way we used to be respected."

Both, of course, would run in the Republican primary.

In the event these two candidates appear neck-and-neck in that primary election phase, both agreed to complete the nomination process in a "Dancing With the Stars" competition.
