I Already Need A Drink

Is there anything more thrilling than watching the likes of Anderson "Pretty Boy" Cooper spew stale, outdated uninformed conventional wisdom all over national television? I've watched a lot of conventions but the coverage of this one is shaping up to be the most condescending and unelightening ever. They might as well have sent Ashley and MaryKate. (Actually, have you seen either one of them in the same room as Anderson Cooper?)

May I recommend a trip over to C-Span? The speeches are boring, but at least they are sincere. (Fox News team just got a hearty boo from the crowd.)You get to see lots of shots of the delegates instead of the absurd celebcorps who haven't even the slightest interest in anything but trivia. And the films are actually quite good.

As Professor DeLong plaintively cries, "Why, oh why can't we have a better press corp?"
