3. Ed
CNN interviewed Ed Gilespie within five seconds of the conclusion of the Kerry speech. Before his wife was even brought on-camera, Ed was shouting his talking points. They had to mute the applause (mostly) to let the Republicans spin freely.

They'd better let somebody from our side speak at the immediate conclusion of Bush's speech. As for who...I'm not really sure. The Left doesn't have the same kind of sardonic, invective-spewing attack dogs as the Right.

Our best anti-spin artists are comedians, and they don't get much play on cable news. Though, apparently, if you're on The Sopranos, that'll get you in the door.

I'd pay to see Jon Stewart play the role.

5. No kidding.
But Terry's never on TV, and I'm wondering whether there's a reason for that. I've *never* seen Terry. Ed's on four shows a week.
