Finally, the Truth About the Bulge

BBC News Online's Kevin Anderson on his favourite moment from today's Sunday morning shows:

Tim Russert asked Ken Mehlman what the bulge in Mr Bush's jacket was in the first debate.

"Let me clear up this. Let me come clean. He was receiving secret signals from aliens in outer space. You heard it first here," Mr Mehlman said in a convincing dead pan.

Kerry strategist Bob Shrum said, "You've sent Karl Rove into outer space?!"

For what it's worth, I'm guessing it's a bullet-proof jacket or some sort of back support--if there's anything there at all. But in this election, there are much bigger issues we should be paying attention to.
