Bright Lights, Big Smile 

The results are in, and the winner of our Votes2004 nation-wide high school mock election is Kerry by a nose. Will this be the first time in the by-now six-election history of the project that our national poll of adolescents does not accurately predict the winner of the "real" national election? Only time and several months of legal challenges will tell; see this week's Onion sidebar for more on the "Countdown to the Recount."

Incidentally, those who missed my six-minute "ask the expert" interview on Media and the Political Process may not have missed much. I seem to have lost my stagecraft confidence; my recollection of the event is limited to a vague memory of a stage-light and wild-crowd inspired deer-in-the-headlights moment that seemed to last forever, and I was told by observers immediately afterwards that the interview was "okay," which isn't terribly high praise, is it?
