IT WAS A PETER WATKINS FILM


And yet, I find this election campaign to have been an impressive testament to post-modernism's limits. The post-modern candidate was Palin:
  • a hologram of cultural resentments,
  • crafted to win votes through image, propaganda and untruth.
And yet we saw right through it. Fact mattered in the end, didn't it? And truthiness finally lost.- Andrew Sullivan


You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time
