I'M NOT REALLY A PRESIDENT, BUT I PLAY ONE ON TV

From the sanest man in news: Paul Krugman -- "Swagger vs. Substance":

Let's face it: whatever happens in Thursday's debate, cable news will proclaim President Bush the winner. This will reflect the political bias so evident during the party conventions. It will also reflect the undoubted fact that Mr. Bush does a pretty good Clint Eastwood imitation.

But what will the print media do? Let's hope they don't do what they did four years ago.
