“I think she’s… this is going to get me in trouble, but I actually think she’s just more smarter” - Meghan McCain
By Dell Hill
What I really appreciate in political discussions - especially on television - is in-depth, knowledgeable, articulation which utilizes plain English to convey an unambiguous message.
To give you a perfect example, here’s a brief clip of a recent discussion on MSDNC. Meghan McCain, that renowned word-smith and political observer extraordinaire was asked to compare Michele Bachmann to Sarah Palin.
In case you need a transcription, Jammie Wearing Fools is up to the task.
“I think she’s… this is going to get me in trouble, but I actually think she’s just more smarter,” explained McCain.
“I think that she’s more um, you know, on foreign policy, I mean I just think all the things she’s done, the debates, I’ve been very impressed,” continued McCain, “and I just think she’s older and more established, and you know, she’s been a member of Congress for a very long time.”
Bachmann has been in Congress since 2007.
Is it any wonder that Charles Krauthammer shudders in fear each time he takes to the air-waves?
