Democratic Debate

I can just hear the right-wing punditry already, droning on and on about how hollywood's elite liberals turned out en masse for tonight's debate. So far I spotted, Pierce Brosnan, Jason Alexander, Diane Keaton, Ugly Betty, Isaiah Washington and Kate Capshaw who I can only assume was sitting next to her husband Steven Spielberg.

I'm also slightly detecting a change in Hillary's tone of voice in line with her little "crying" spell a few weeks ago. Softer and less aggro. I assume it polled well.

And fucking Wolf Blitzer, "Senator that was a clear swipe at you". Trying to fan the flames of an argument for entertainment's sake. It was not clearly a swipe. What a media bastard.

Interestingly Ron Paul is airing commercials in Washington. So far the only candidate I've seen a commercial for. Granted I don't watch a lot of TV but I assume I'd have seen one by now. Since our caucus takes place after Super Tuesday, I imagine Washington is relatively insignificant as far as primary politics go.
