Drew Westen is the Democrats' 2008 linguistic guru, after George Lakoff's failure to beat the Republicans with the concept of "framing". Westen was on with Dianne Rehm Thursday, explaining (as Rush Limbaugh has been saying for years) that Democrats are ruled by emotions, and so should be addressed emotionally rather than logically.

I wonder if the Democrats recall Westen's defense of Larry Summers.

While boys and girls have similar scores on the SAT Verbal, the boys average is 40 points higher on SAT Math. At the extreme right of the bell curve (which is where our MIT science PhD's come from), this translates into a huge disparity.
