Hilzoy says it best. I just have the succinct “Egad, I hope not.”^*

^*Bonus points for catching the reference. I’m looking at you, Uncle.

Heh. The Tick rules. Have you noticed that lately she’s Hillary Clinton again and seems to have lost the Rodham?

Now, really impress me. Give me the line in context.

Err, is that the: That’s where I keep all my stuff?

I could google it, though.

I wouldn’t worry too much, My hunch is that what Lieberman was in 2004 is Hillary in 2008, early name recognition is keeping her up in the polls for now, but the primaries are still a year away, it’s just too soon to really know much.

Although maybe a better comparison would be Phil Gramm in 1996, the early money and endorsements went to him, and then it all just fell apart.

Uncle:

Very good. Context:

Interviewer: Can you destroy the Earth?
Tick: Egad, I hope not! That’s where I keep all my stuff!
