If I Hear...
Posted by: Mary Katharine Ham at 10:18 PM
The Edwardses say "y'all" or "whyyy" one more time in their exaggerated bastardizations of the accent of my home state, I will be tempted to swear off both words myself.

Whyyy? Whyyy, John Edwards, whyyy? Whyyy must y'all butcher the accent I love?

For a guy who just finished second (he's claiming it; not sure about the tallies), Edwards is about the gloomiest winner since Ed Rollins. He's talking about fear and desolation and greed and the shame-- SHAME, I tell you-- we should all feel for not having elected his one-term Senator butt in 2004 to fix the mess we're in through a powerful combination of weepy anecdotes, vague socialist promises, and the engendering of internecine class wars. Cheery!

Update: Hillary speaks: "We're gonna take this enthusiasm straight to New Hampshire. This is a great night for Democrats."

She's being very magnanimous. She's saying tonight shows the country will have a "Democratic" president next year, but she's not presuming she'll be it. Sort of unintentionally defeatist rhetoric.

She sounds tired.

Update: Heh.

The Worst of All Worlds
I only turned the sound off once on my television last night, over 6 hours of watching Iowa coverage and it was for Edwards's speech. The faster that man gets out of the race and off my TV the better. And I live in the South, barely anyone here talks like that.

Of 220,000 Dems, 154,000 stood up to say
"Hell no, Hillary."
It's a start.

Not that the boobs they voted FOR were any prizes either...
