At the end of the Democratic debate last night, somebody embarrassed herself by asking a question about the Red Sox vs the Yankees.
As if anybody outside the Beltway cared.
But that gave me an idea. Why not humanize the debates by having an inconsequential but mildly amusing fluff question at the end of every presidential debate. That way, everybody could be in a good mood as they turn to something else.
And I know who could come up with the questions-- the right-wing master of fluff himself--Jeff Goldstein of Protein Wisdom.
Nobody does fluff better than Jeff.

Except his fluff for a Democratic debate would be seething with bitter rage and hatred of academics. Maybe, he should just stick to fellating Republicans
Goldstein? bitter?
Why should anyone in the beltway care about the Yanks and Red Sox? They've got their own team, and the Orioles and Phillies are close by, and it's football season.
This is awesome. Jeff hasn't been stalked by someone from academe for several weeks now.
BJ, any day you want to step out from behind Jeff's skirt and argue, I'll be glad to assault your NARRATIVE. Where's the realization, Brian, that your decrying of the narrative has become your narrative?
well, step over here Portuguese one and I'll be glad to rhetorically kick your ass. I would have continued to do on PW, but the rage and bitterness of the faux academic frightens me. As do his threats toward me. So, come on outside where Mommy can't protect you and let's rumble.
Rhetorically speaking, of course.
People are so-o-o suspicious and cynical. Why can't people see me as honoring Goldstein rather than stalking him? After all the great attention I've gotten from Protein Wisdom (and I mean that), it was the least I could do to return the favor.
I guess they don't recognize he is funny.
Mean-spirited, angry, long-winded, macho, and way up Michelle Malkin's keister, but the dud can turn a phrase. Plus, it would be nice to have a amen chorus following all over you house, assuring you that no matter how brazenly hypocritical you are about gay marriage and libertarian philosophy (sorry, "classically liberal", because Voltaire was an expert on the Commerce Clause and favored illegal wire-tapping).
I would like to get me a few JD's, MCgehee's, BJTxs's, ef's, and a Major John or two to tell me how great I am. I'd draw the line at Pablo, however. He's just a rifle and real manliness away from turning into Eric Rudolph. I can't have THAT on my conscience!
Sure, anyone can get JD, McGhee and Major John to tell them how great they are.
But to get me to say you are great, that takes effort.
So you are out of luck there.
Damn! Mr. Roberts is a fine example of the hard-nosed professional with analytical skills I would want to have in my chorus. Sure, we differ on a ton of issues, but....I won't have an ideological litmus test!
