Well, the polls say Obama won pretty decisively. It looks like this is because women don’t cotton to McCain, which is reasonable enough. Walnuts! Anyway, once again it is demonstrated that cosmopolitan libertarian metrosexual econophilosopher bloggers may not be the most reliable barometers of the popular mood.
Winston was sleeping during the debate, but we left CNN on to soothe his nerves during his first night sleeping outside the bedroom. So he says he saw the debate highlights “like a million times.” Winston suggests that though McCain seemed to control the debate, his offensive style was actually indicative of a lower rank in the dominance hierarchy, while Obama’s generous reserve made him look like the bigger dog. I still think McCain had the better of it, but Winston makes some good points.
Here is a picture of Winston contemplating the emptiness of consumerism:
When you mentioned the set of “cosmopolitan libertarian metrosexual econophilosopher bloggers” I assume you meant to use a definite descriptor to pick out only one particular: you.
An interesting question is whether there are any others. If you drop 'metrosexual' then you can include lots of GMU guys. But Hanson, Kling, Caplan, Cowen, Tabbarok, Boettke, etc. are far from metro.
You know what? Are you really metro? Because you seem more nerdy than metro. I guess I think they're sort of mutually exclusive.
Winston is onto something. And: Is really cute.
Every day, in every way, we're getting metro and metro.
totally sweet.
Winston my be pondering the emptiness of consumerism, but just try to take that foam bone away from him and he will quickly ponder the joys of consumerism.
