Bio
"When people read campaign coverage, they should be aware that man-on-the-street interviews almost never take place on the actual street. They take place at the campaign events, which are attended only by people who care enough to come see the candidate. Their responses invariably fall into one of three categories: yea ("I like his straightforwardness"), nay ("You didn't feel like he was knowledgeable") or undecided ("I'm waffling between him and Edwards"). You never see answers like "I think they all suck" or "I'm not voting, and I hope they all die in a fire." The reason is simple: People inclined to say things like that live far beyond the geographical boundaries of campaign events. In order to find them, you need to use every minute of your allotted time in each city just to get to where they are."
