Look out! It’s a candidate

The absolute best coverage is from Dave Barry.

The candidates had their last debate here Thursday night at St. Anselm College. Outside, it was roughly 870 degrees below zero, but hundreds of campaign activists showed up to wave signs and shout at each other. This always strikes me as strange: I mean, what’s the point of holding a Dean sign and shouting ”DEAN! DEAN! DEAN!” for three straight hours in the bitter cold when the only person who can see or hear you is holding a Kerry sign and shouting ”KERRY! KERRY! KERRY!”? Does anybody’s mind get changed? After a while, do these people become convinced by each other and swap signs?
