Palin Winked?!
It came a little over an hour into the debate. Palin had just said, “Say it ain’t so, Joe,” and unfurled a Reaganesque “there you go again.” Then she winked at the camera. Bloggers spent the night puzzling over this come-hither gesture, with one (Megan McArdle) speculating it was Palin’s signal that “viewers are supposed to come up to her hotel room with a bottle of champagne after the debate.” Another added that it was cuter than Bush’s wink. But the best interpretation comes from Ezra Klein, who observes, “She winked. I'm serious. Satire is dead. Only deadpan reenactment is up to the task.”
