Causal, YouTube has a vast amount of content. It's obvious to any well-intentioned person that I was not drawing conclusions from watching LonelyGirl15. From where I sit, it's as if you were criticizing me for using the public library because they carry Teen Beat. I wouldn't expect to make the "impression" you've come up with on anyone who doesn't intend to denigrate me.

You really shouldn't expect the object of your ridicule to find your cheap shots funny.

Hey, hey, hey, don't be mean. We don't have to be mean, because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

Well, the point is that any yahoo can post any piece of drivel he or she wants. I don't know if you've noticed, but YouTube is hardly a video news digest. Not with Lonelygirl, Hopeisemo and Askaninja on there. No, sir. Now, I don't doubt that you can find actual news, but you should at least be aware of the impression you make when you cite Youtube as a source of guidance on voting issues.

Or, alternately, you could reinstall your sense of humor; that might work, too.

Nope. He does well in the polls for that reason: recognizable. People know his face. They think of him as tough military guy or hard nosed DA. While he may be a bit like those characters, I think people believe he is those characters.

America. Sigh. We flip flop between Beltway Insiders for "experience" and "security", and wing-nut (but recognizable!) heroes like Jesse "The Body" Ventura and "The Terminator".

Do you suppose we'll EVER figure out that there's a difference between TV and reality?

"In those Nixon references to the Bay of Pigs [in the White House tapes] he [Nixon] was actually referring to the Kennedy assassination... After Kennedy was killed, the CIA launched a fantastic cover-up... The CIA literally erased any connection between Kennedy's assassination and the CIA...in fact, Counter Intelligence Chief James Angleton of the CIA called Bill Sullivan of the FBI (Number Three man under J. Edgar Hoover, who later died of a gunshot would) and rehearsed the questions and answers they would give to the Warren Commission investigators."
-HR Haldeman, Nixon's White House chief of staff and convicted felon, The Ends of Power
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._R._Haldeman

"When you get in these people when you...get these people in, say: "Look, the problem is that this will open the whole, the whole Bay of Pigs thing, and the President just feels that" ah, without going into the details... don't, don't lie to them to the extent to say there is no involvement, but just say this is sort of a comedy of errors, bizarre, without getting into it, "the President believes that it is going to open the whole Bay of Pigs thing up again. And, ah because these people are plugging for, for keeps and that they should call the FBI in and say that we wish for the country, don't go any further into this case", period!"
