Check the transcripts

I've been on the internet this morning, seeing how the blogosphere is reacting to last night's debate and checking my reactions against those of other people who do this.

Last week, I brought myself up to speed on the Falin interview issue by reading transcripts of what she said, then augmenting that with selected viewing of YouTube video. When you read what this woman is saying, as opposed to listening to it on television, it's practically guaranteed to produce sub-migraine headaches.

Added 9:58 pm, Saturday: I've read most of the snowbunny debate transcripts. When you read what she said in printed form there's a ton of gibberish there, indicating the success of her presentation is based on its visual component, not the exceptional content of her spoken words. And the visual component was all about foxiness and flirtation. As is usual in America, sex sells. Rich Lowry of the conservative National Review is ridiculed for writing honestly, if euphemistically, about his physical reaction to the snowbunny. My only complaint is that he should knock off that "starburst" nonsense and write about what was really about to burst.

Wasilla Vanilla... putting the poontang back into politics !
