until he, too, got caught with his pants down, calls this the
vindication of "the Silent Plurality," the 35 percent made up
mostly of Generation X-ers who, like the French, don't care what
you do exactly as long as they don't have to tell the 7-year-olds
what oral sex is exactly.
Mr. Morris recalls another client, who reminds him a lot of Bill
Clinton. Bill Allain was once his candidate for governor of
Mississippi.
"Four weeks before election day, the Republicans announced that
they were holding three black gay transvestite prostitutes in a
Louisiana motel room who swore that they had had sex with Allain.
They passed lie-detector tests. Overnight his 30-point lead
metastasized into a 30-point deficit.
"As we battled back against the allegations, our polls showed
more and more voters saying that they refused to have an opinion
on them. They refused to discuss them or consider them in voting.
They were the Silent Plurality. When we changed the subject, they
sighed with relief. When the Republicans wouldn't let the matter
drop, these voters switched to Allain in droves, boosting him to
a 15-point victory."
But salvation may be on the way. That asteroid could be coming
straight at us.
