Ah, Jon...

Watching the tube tonight (pretty rare!), seeing the end of the Matrix, the middle of Godzilla, other stuff. As I'm about to flip it off, I see Larry King, yuck, talking to -- hey, thats Jon Stewart! So I listen for a while, and King is saying 'Whats up with Hillary? Where did she go wrong? Or did Obama go right?' And Stewart looks at him and says something like "Obama is ahead.because...more people voted for him."

He went on to ask why people had the compulsion to parse it, to segment the market, to do all of that stuff, but that was the key statement.

Because more people voted for him.

I like it simple.


(There's a copy of the show, broken into chunks, here. It's pretty interesting.)
