And to think they saddled GHW Bush with “the Wimp Factor”.
There was a great video circulating about 3 or 4 years ago comparing John Edwards to George Bush in the way that they regarded their hair - it was set to the soundtrack to the movie Rawhide. It has, apparently, been pulled for unauthorized use of the soundtrack (according to YouTube). John Edwards - scrunching his nose like a bunny as he carefully pats his hair perfectly into place in such an intense way - like he is diffusing a bomb. Followed by a clip of George Bush on camera, apparently instructed to ‘fix his hair’ , George reaches up and makes an annoyed swipe or two through his hair with the palm of his hand and then looks back at the camera as if to say “there -it’s done, now what”? Then the video would cut back to John Edwards receiving hairspray, painstakingly patting his hair - then back to George’s ‘instant fix’. I hope you saw it back then - it was great.
