“Ninety-nine and a half just won’t do”—Wilson Pickett
My brother takes a funny dig at data-driven research on his PREAPrez blog. But I can top it.
How about John Edwards’ plea the other day that he was being “99% honest” when he denied his tryst with a consultant (yuck!).
Now, here’s my data-driven question for you. If 99% honesty isn’t enough, what percent is enough?
And speaking of politicians who sneak around (and aren’t even 99% honest about it) on their faithful, but seriously ill wives, what kind of man would do a thing like that and still think he could run for high office without consequence? I’ll direct that one at John McCain, Rudy Giuliani (actually he was the sick one), and Newt Gingrich.
