Botox

I didn't have to watch the Convention after all. Peggy Noonan sums it all up in a short and clever column.

Ron Reagan as Ron Popiel of "Pocket-Fisherman" fame, Jesse Jackson's non-consent as a torch is passed to Barack Obama, the rich, liberal victimhood of THK's demeanor, and this amazing swipe at the Junior Senator from the great state of New York:

At a certain point Botox can become a problem for those in public life. Mrs. Clinton now has to pop her eyes out to show excitement. Worry lines are honorable, and in Mr. Clinton's wife they are understandable. She should keep them.

It's vintage Peggy with a lightness and humor she doesn't always nail these days. jk gives it five stars...
