Or perhaps a glass of fine merlot.

This working class, small town, salt-of-the earth, middle America imagery just isnt doing it for me.

1. Y'know - if Clintons and their loyalists had actually TRIED to help Dems being attacked
by the media the last 7 years instead of finding cameras mostly to protect and defend Bush on his Iraq war decisions, there would be little talk of poor Hillary getting 'swiftboated' now.

2. Exactly-where were these guys during Conyer's basement hearings on media bias?
Sipping on latte-err...I mean Folgers crystals, no doubt.

3. This whole things is beginning to smell.
I mean, come on.

Red signs?

All those Just Plain as Dirt folks showing up?

Maybe the Ghost of Lee Atwater is furtively lurking in the hallways of Fox.

9. Heck, man...

I'll buy the first round, and then we will get some local women with money to take up the slack.

8. Ironically...
I was going to exempt her from my "Plain as Dirt" comment, but was too lazy to type it.

Great minds, as they say...

Hell, I would fly her out to the Bay for a few weeks.

Hang around Marin, and all.

I don't care if I sound sexist or not.

17. One thing that strikes me about many of the signs in that pic. They're hand-lettered, but...
...apparently by the same hand.

  Anyone else notice that?

  You can see even more of what I'm talking about in some of the other pictures but the 5 in the picture serve as a good example.

20. First thing I noticed - exactly like all the campaign signs at rallies that are supposed to 'appear'
to be home made. They've been doing this since 92 as I recall. Bushies do it, too.

22. For so few participants I did find it unusual. Usually you see the...
...mass-hand-lettered signs at the bigger rallies, and usually the ones that are going to be telivised.

  For little spontaneous ones, it's not what I'd expect.
