The Sole of the Campaign

April 1, 2004

Every once in a while here at Campaign Desk we amaze ourselves with our ability to spot trends long before anyone else.

We read with interest today’s New York Times report about a campaign appearance by Sen. John Kerry. What caught our eye was this brief anecdote: “[T]he senator was greeted on Tuesday in California by Bush supporters who held up black plastic flip-flops and clapped them together as Mr. Kerry tried to speak.”

At the risk of blowing our own horn: You read it here first, folks.
