I'm a guy, and inside every guy is a 10-year-old who laughs hysterically at that sort of thing. Besides, the little nugget of substance is still lurking inside the riff: Both witches have that insufferably arrogant rightwing attitude that the press has no right to ask them any tough questions, and to do so is partisan and "gotcha journalism". That, as more than one rightwing candidate has declared (e.g. Sharon Angle in Nevada), our place is only to vote for them and <i>then</i> find out about their policies and plans. So you were still right, Eri, fundamentally. ok

As far as confusing the two women, I was watching some news thing late at night and I was running on 2 hours sleep during the last two nights so I'm not functioning very well. (It's a long story having to do with cats and thunderstorms and cats and cats and cats.) IMO, though, Michele Bachmann IS a witch. Heh.

I should have looked it up . I saw a news piece on TV and could have sworn they were talking about Bachman. My apologies. And that wastes a perfectly good zinger. Next time I'll look it up BEFORE posting. Bad Patricia. Oh crap! I stand corrected. I should have looked it up . I saw a news piece on TV and could have sworn they were talking about Bachman.

That's why she walked out on Piers Morgan's interview. He was too much for her to swallow. Edit note: Christine O'Donnell was the one who walked out on Piers, not Bachmann. Mea Culpa. Aha!
