Slog - Comments on On the Radio http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/09/on_the_radio_26 I'll be on KUOW's Weekday tomorrow morning, talking about the news of the week with other Seattle journalist types. Likely topics: lipstick, pigs, Sarah Palin, Pit Bulls, striking teachers, striking Boeing workers, my article in the current issue of The American Prospect, and a new piece in The Stranger that addresses the growing epidemic of Election Anxiety Disorder. Anything else we should discuss? That's 94.9 FM, beginning at 10 a.m., if you want to listen....

Nice to see you at the party, Josh.

since lipstick and pigs and Palin sucks all the air out of the room

making the discussion NEVER be about the economic futures of swing voters under Obama.

The price of milk and gas they will see, helath costs, college costs, all that.

Oh wait -- the liberal blogosphere isn't even aware that their focus on Palin makes them the tool of McCain! So this advice never could be followed.

Never mind.

Instead go rehash the Palin lipstickgate shit for another half hour or so. Who cares that every media minute we spend on that shit isn't furthering a message that swings voters? It makes liberal listeners tune in, the ratings go up, it makes the speaker more famous, and that's the change we can really believe in.

What the fuck is that about people? Maybe Obama supporters shouldn't head to other states to help campaign but stick a bit closer to home instead...
