Brain Fertilizer

A few days ago, Glennstapundit said this:

THE CANADA/NAFTA STORY continues. I predict, however, that the term "Goolsbee Gate" won't catch on.

I emailed and suggested "NAFTAquiddick".

Glennstapundit updates the post saying:

MORE THOUGHTS HERE. And a reader suggests "Naftaquiddick" in place of "Goolsbee Gate." Er, no.

Even though I include the url to this website, The Instapuppetmaster fails to give me my first Instalanche. Sigh.

And yet, what do my wondering eyes behold today?

NAFTAQUIDDICK UPDATE: "In a conference call going on now, the Obama campaign is continuing to flatly deny that adviser Austan Goolsbee told Canadian officials not to worry about Obama's anti-NAFTA stance. . . . He concedes that Goolsbee did talk to someone in the Canadian government, but insists the two were 'essentially having some casual conversation, and the reports of the conversation are simply not accurate.' Plouffe says Goolsbee was not speaking as a representative of the Obama campaign and that allegations that 'somehow this was an official meeting' are not true."

Once upon a time I whined my way into a place on Michelle Malkin's blogroll in much the same why I'm whining about not getting linked today. I doubt it will work this time. But the more you readers click through to his web, the greater chance he'll notice it.

And then I'll be embarassed. But I'll be embarassed with lots of traffic, so it's all good.
