We Americans are a fickle people. We don’t just want a strong leader, we want a cheerful leader. Media establishments know this—just look at all of those smiling faces!
Hmm… it doesn’t seem like all of those candidates are happy. We don’t want a candidate who isn’t happy, do we? It’s a good thing that groups like CNN just report the facts, and don’t try to sway our votes on a subconscious level.

We don’t have a TV, so I read over the transcript for last night’s CNN/YouTube Republican debate. Romney and McCain are becoming more interesting.

In other news, a press release was just issued this morning announcing that Egmont (among other things, they’re the source for much of the comics we print at Gemstone) has teamed up with Random House and will be opening a U.S. division. Interesting…
