...delegate brushed all that away: "Voters will see the Tories are stealing our ideas and don't have our substance." But that's exactly what Conservatives used to say about Blair as he crushed them in three elections.

Watson’s awesomely bad survey, “Food and Culture.” It’s Anthro-lite, with whipped cream and a cherry on top. Pro: You talk about food, all the time. Con: No food is actually distributed at lecture, so you leave hungry. (Though sometimes section presentations are spiced up with delicious cookies or chips.)
