Where the Girls Are   [John Derbyshire]

P.J. O'Rourke remarked in one of his books that a sure indicator of the dynamism of any political movement is the number of hot babes at gatherings of supporters. Possibly I've been reading too much evolutionary psychology, but this strikes me as a nontrivial observation.

Whether it is or not, I keep trying to apply it to the various candidacies currently on offer, with so far inconclusive results. I must say, though, that the Ron Paul campaign is no slouch in this regard. Look at the lady our cameraman lingers on at 9:32 into this Ron Paul video.

(Yes, I spend my first hour or so in the morning watching Ron Paul videos. You got a problem with that?)
