Hmm: How Come Women Right In The Front Rows Of Every Obama Speech Seem To Faint At The Same Point?

Right on camera, right on cue.

This is all suspicious, but let's remember (God, I can't believe I'm writing this with respect to a jug-eared jackass) the Beatles: Lots of girls fainted for them, too, probably because they internalized, somehow, that they were expected to faint.

Though I would dearly like to check out exactly who these Fainting Fannies really are.

Thanks to Genghis.

Revival Tent Huckstery? It occurs to me that Obama's rallies resemble nothing if not Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show, and that they just may have incorporate the tricks of that trade: To wit, having someone scout out the "talent" -- those who looked likely to fall to the ground in an ecstatic conniption -- and making sure they were seated front and center.
