MUST READ!!!!

Important news for all:
--Gender and Candidate Communication: VideoStyle, WebStyle, and NewStyle, by
Dianne G. Bystrom, Mary Christine Banwart, Lynda Lee Kaid, and Terry A.
Robertson--
is a must read, according to Caroline Heldman, an Assistant Professor of Politics at Occidental College.
She RAVES: "It is an ideal synopsis of the topic for a graduate course, accessible to
undergraduates, and a bookshelf necessity for scholars of American government"
and insists that "The powerhouse team of Bystrom, Banwart, Kaid, and Robertson" have produced "the most definitive work on this subject to date."

I say we file this article under the category "Duh." I mean, do we expect anything less from the scintillating scholarship of Dr. Banwart?

--just thought you all should know.

ps, Kelly, did I loan you my copy of this book or have I lost it??? I hear someone wrote about the internet somewhere inside this masterpiece.

I am just glad to know that you are spending your weekend revelling in the academic voice, contemplating how you will further the knowledge, profound insight, and general overall smartness of the Academy. And of course, this is an ideal text to be reading in order to do such lofty work. I would imagine you should locate your copy quite quickly as to not miss a moment of perhaps pure intellectual advancement.

Oh... and pretty good work on trying to get in some quality, ingratiating comments.
