Was ABC newscaster Diane Sawyer taking part in an election-night drinking game that only she knew the rules of? We highly doubt it (and Ms. Sawyer herself tweeted she think it's "funny"; some people think otherwise).

But her rather relaxed demeanor in the hours leading up to President Barack Obama's re-election does make this resurfaced video of the then Primetime Live host sipping what looks like wine (or another red beverage out of a wine glass) between takes all the more amazing.

And that's not the best part (file all that under: Sorry for party rocking). The best part is when Diane starts talking smack: "Too bad she's crazy," she cooly quips as she fluffs her perfect Princess Di hair for the umpteenth time. So, what makes this unnamed woman (who is this unnamed woman?!) so crazy?
