noise annoys


Eugene Robinson in todays WaPo:
"I hear McCain's amen chorus screaming, "Lipstick on a pig! Lipstick on a pig!" But they're well aware that Barack Obama was unambiguously talking about McCain's economic ideas, not his running mate. It seems incomprehensible that the McCain campaign would make so much noise about an allegation that clearly doesn't hold a drop of water -- until you realize that
the noise is the whole point...
Any day spent arguing about meaningless ephemera is a small but significant victory for a campaign that has nothing to say."
