* If they were horses in a paddock, and you were just observing them pre-race for what their bodies told you, which one would you bet on? If you're gonna do horserace coverage, do it right, I say.

Added: Oz should  not lose for eating crudite anymore than Mitt should have lost for not paying to kennel the family dog* at vacationtime.  Be honest.  Put the best brains in the leadership top jobs and see how things really Change. Say what you will about Dr. Oz, he's got energy in his step. He's not gonna ride the gravy train or compete too much for the cupcakes on the table. He won't eat more than he earns, and brings in for the country I bet. Try him, don't just give it to the BigGuy.

* the media just got off on that name Seamus (pronounced "Shame Us").  Humor like that is ugly and dumb -- shaming humor -- even/especially if it works when you employ it, because it's so low grade.  Hitting below the belt stupid. Kicking and scratching humor. Give me a solid punchline to the gut that really lands....   Substantive humor. Adult jokes, not for forth-graders.
