Paris Hilton: "Hot" and Smart

Love it. Parody. Even if it's 1 million places on the Web already:



And who cares if someone else wrote it for her (which may be the case)? She had the smarts to do it.

(It's a video of Paris in her revealing bathing suit talking about John McCain, energy policy -- making a very sensible proposal of having BOTH offshore drilling a la McCain AND conservation policy, a la Obama -- and where to get a tan. Oh, and thinking Rianna for her vice president, and maybe painting the White House pink.

Blogger is for Liberals?

It can be intriguing to poke around in a measurement system and get some surprises. One, today, from Quantcast, is that people visiting Blogger dipped in late Spring, then shot up in June through now.
And another, if Quantcast is to be believed, is that people who visit Blogger.com also have an affiinity for such Left-leaning matter as Daily Kos and The Atlantic. Hmmm. Never thought of blogging as anything but equal-opportunity. I'll have to poke around and see if Typepad or something else is a more "conservative" platform.

Smart Republicans

It's often said Republicans do a better job of marketing themselves and their Party than Democrats.

Look what sponsored link atop the page came up when I googled "Democratic Convention" (needed some info to see if I won a bet). That's trying to capture the swing vote, eh? (Click the image to see it larger if you need.)
