They may take our votes, but they’ll never take our syntax II
August 27th, 2008Looks like they cleaned up their act over at GOP.com.
However, they forgot to fix the press release:
WASHINGTON – The Republican National Committee (RNC) launched a new clock today counting the time until Sen. Joe Biden’s next gaffe.
Just 12 hours after being chosen as Barack Obama’s running mate, Biden made his first gaffe at 3:31 p.m. EDT. The RNC’s new clock will count the hours, minutes and seconds until Biden’s next slip up on the campaign trail.
Lastly, I note that Biden successfully navigated his first day of solo campaigning, staying gaffe-free. Also, a clock doesn’t count time, it keeps it. A timer counts time. If the GOP wants to incorporate my changes, no credit is needed:
WASHINGTON – The Republican National Committee (RNC) launched a new timer today counting the time elapsed since Sen. Joe Biden’s last gaffe.
Just 12 hours after being chosen as Barack Obama’s running mate, Biden made his first gaffe at 3:31 p.m. EDT. The RNC’s new timer will count the hours, minutes and seconds elapsed since Biden’s last slip-up on the campaign trail.
