OF DOODLES AND DIAGRAMS

Here comes the third debate. As I was saying
about the first debate, “Will voters ever get to see what those guys were scribbling
so furiously?” I suspected the Ignoramus in Chief was doodling his mantra, “significant progress,”
and Kerry his counter-mantra, “four more years of the same.” James Wolcott figures debaters’ notes, in future, should be
confiscated and subjected to graphologists, “if need be,” for comparative “insight into their
thought processes.” Wolcott suspects that in the second debate it was “a moo-cow” doodle vs. “a
better America for you and me” diagram.
