Hooting and hollering

Posted on January 22, 2004 @ 10:12 pm

I’m so glad that Al Sharpton is still in the race for the Democratic nomination–if for no other reason than to provide us with classic quips like the one he delivered during tonight’s debate to console Howard Dean over his much-ballyhooed post-Iowa caucus outburst. “If I spent the kind of money you did and only got 18 percent, I’d still be in Iowa hooting and hollering.” Zing!

    Granted Dean looked silly, but doesn’t all this media attention seem odd? They say it may be the downfall of his campaign. It just seems so silly to me. I mean, being a dork doesn’t seem to have stopped most the people before him.

    Interestingly enough, there’s currently an AP article running on Yahoo News (link via Southern Musings) that discusses the role of weblogs in perpetuating coverage of the Dean outburst. While I think it’s a bit overstated, but it’s an interesting perspective.
