Climateer Line of the Day: New York 23rd Edition

We very, very rarely venture into the swamp of political commentary, preferring instead to let policy makers make fools of themselves, well, themselves. This is an exception because it explains so much. From Professor Ann Althouse of the University of Wisconsin Law School:

...A few points about the Congressional race from someone who lives in upstate NY (not in district 23, but nearby.)

1) We have been inundated with TV commercials here. On TV, Hoffman comes across as exceedingly weird, skinny and overeager with googly eyes, bright yellow teeth, and an odd, halting way of speaking....
Alrighty then.
Perhaps the headline should have been "...Googly Eyed Edition"
