    John is a really great guy. I got to know him a little by e-mail when I worked locally on his national campaign. And so handsome, too. *rawr* He did a fantastic job of framing the issue. He stomped on Aaron Brown's attempts at making the salacious aspects central to the key aspects. Do watch the video--John is really impressive. He's been in the profession of Internet-based activism longer than just about anyone--way before the blog was invented, let alone common.

    I think I screwed up on the link and formatting. I get so used to typing in Textile-styles. That should read: John is a really great guy. I got to know him a little by e-mail when I worked locally on his national StopDrLaura.com campaign. And so handsome, too. Rawr.

    I watched a few minutes and of course was impressed by John. But Aaron Brown is unwatchable, so smary. I had to turn it off for my own sanity.

    You might say Mr. Brown was being smarmy; I saw him as being very, very cautious about picking his words. He was very gingerly and carefully trying not to hand the two bloggers any ammo...to no avail, because of the embarassingly rich amount.

    Brown looked like he was feeling positively sick that he could not control the conversation and limit it only to those things flattering to the right wing and making the left look other than professional or relevant. He failed miserably. At least he takes after his leader, if that's any consolation to him. BTW, there is NOTHING in this story that is flattering to the right or that makes the left look less than relevant. Those darned biased facts (sarcasm).

    The pendulum continues to swing back and forth. First Rathergate. Now Propa-gannon.
