I don't think it will as Americans will soon yearn for Kobe/Lacy/Am. Idol news and get burnt out on RR. However, last night one of my cable chanels showed "1984" again and in the opening scene where the throng is whipped up and then become emotional at the site of Big Brother, I was struck by the similatity to the pagent unfolding this week. The other part of the movie that is similar to today's events is where Winston is rewriting the news articles to change the record of history. The Republicans and the media are rewriting as fast as they can to make RR look like he saved the free world. I only wish that we had an objective press that could rise above the onslaught of propaganda we are being subjected to.

I also think that besides those who see the curent regime as coming up short in comparison to RR what a mind boggling thought, there will be those who will remember what damage RR did to this nation.
