On Somber Reflection...
because this convention does deserve a more serious vetting:
Arnold: A+++: just like Ralphie's dream fantasy about the Red Ryder BB gun essay. Why? Because he's Arnold.
The Twins: B-: because they were a little too giggly. I do believe the girls were stoned. Nothing wrong with that, except, despite all my personal issues, even I wouldn't do that to my dad, even at the state rep level. But, hey: only because I didn't have access to weed. I was eight years old.
Laura: A+: she rocked. Why? Not because she was erudite, or glib. No, the exact oppposite. Because she was sincere, and humble. Laura Bush did more to convince the American people that her husband is acting from the goodness of his heart, and from personal conviction, than any spinmeister could hope to do.
So. A straightforward assessment.
Now: who's bringing the Twins to Blogtoberfest? I know how these girls think. They just need a reason.
