Palin/Bullwinkle 2012?

Ward and his partner, Alex Anderson, owed the creation of Bullwinkle to a strange dream — and a used car dealer.

Anderson had dreamt he attended a poker party with a "stupid moose who was doing card tricks," he told author Scott. "I woke up feeling embarrassed. I thought, 'You've been working too hard.'"

But he and Ward realized this could be a rich comical character. What to call it, though? They simply adapted the name of a car dealer — Clarence Bullwinkel — that they found humorous.
And now, the rest of the story.

  1. I'd feel more comfortable if Rocky was in charge. Rocky has more sense than Sarah.

  2. Rocky isn't quite as funny as Sarah though. Bullwinkle's another story.

  3. Several Short of a Deck Editor Asks:

    Whose card tricks are better though?
