Talk about an easy job .....

* So Biden is good in ( fill in the blank ) .... this means Obama
must be weak in that area.

* What do we really know about Obama?

My goal .... no cable news shows all weekend. (maybe a little Keith
or Air America)

1. You Can Be A "Pundit"
The nice thing of the "digital age"...anyone with a video camera and microphone can be seen/heard to a worldwide audience. Just upload your "punditry" to Youtube and hope it goes viral.

Our "punditry" is truly the chattering class...experts in the "art" of mental masturbation. Many live in the beltway village where "conventional wisdom" reigns supreme...which is nothing more than spreading the gossip they hear on the telephones (from other "pundits" and spinners) or at their drinkie-drinkie parties. You don't need to ever be right...no one will ever call you on it anyway.

Good luck...
