Kerry MASTERED Bush At The Hand Shake

[Beetwasher]

Kerry held him and made Bush blink and slink away.

It was over after that.

All Kerry ever had to do, was get him within arms reach and let him know he was up against a man. The rest does itself.

1. You caught that too, huh?

Bush's body language away from the podium was ... painful.

I know it's the major cliché of our times, but he looked like he just got spanked by the Prefect and had to do the mandatory post-flogging handshake before repairing to the Third Form Boys' Dormitory to cry himself to sleep.

(Well, if you're going to flog a metaphor, you might as well flog it right.)

Laura and the Twins looked nonplussed as well. Barb looked like she was ready to kill him (probably for that "leash" remark), Jenna looked like "been there, done that, hate the f*cker", and Laura was having an Imodium Moment.

And Kerry didn't rub it in. After all the petty sarcasm and nasty little remarks Team Bush has made, I admire his restraint.
