The 'Gravitas' Factor in 2004 Presidential Election
Remember this from the 2000 election? Just an example of how the media manipulates the population. Hell check out clerks were even using the word.

That was hilarious. I remember seeing a string of clips from the weekend talkinghead shows right after the DNC sent the 'Gravitas' memo out. It was hysterical - EVERY single DNC operative used the word.
 More importantly though, why isn't the DNC concerned with John Breckboy Edwards' total lack of "gravitas". He's only "a heartbeat away".

I don't have a dictionary handy. Does "gravitas" mean "sees WMD everywhere", "deficits don't matter", or "lets his Veep decide"?
