HILLIARY

[Miss Didi]

SURE HOPE THEY'RE NOT KEEPING YOU UP

[Tea in the Harbor]

I didn't. The thing I usually notice about Hillary is her annoyingly excessive hand gestures.

She has a more fluent speech pattern than Obama, who hems and haws, lards every sentence with a dozen "ummms", makes grammatical errors and generally sounds like a freshman debater.

She seemed to give a genuine laugh when they played a clip of McCain mocking Obama's buzzwords and book title: "All these tax increases are the fine print under the slogan of 'hope': They're going to raise your taxes by thousands of dollars per year -- and they have the audacity to hope you don't mind."

People tend not to make eye contact when they’re thinking hard. Obama doesn’t do much thinking on his feet. When he does, he makes dreadful gaffes.

"People tend not to make eye contact when they’re thinking hard"

Or when they are telling lies.

[Tea in the Harbor]

Who knows what Hillary is looking at. What’s clear is that Obama is looking at Allah, Mohammed and Odinga.

Thank you.
Hillary certainly wins the snideness contest.
