How do I react?

Nancy: Joe, did Barack just endorse charter schools as an example of what’s working in public education?

Joe: I think he did.

Nancy: Everyone looks like they are about to applaud. What should we do?

Joe: Do you think the cameras are on us right now?

Nancy: I don’t know. Maybe they’re taking a shot of Landrieu. She’s all over charters down there in Louisiana.

Joe: My state has given charters a real rough time lately, and I don’t think my constituents donors would appreciate my showing any support.

Nancy: Mine neither. What should we do?

Joe: Let’s just scowl. It always worked for Cheney. I don’t know if he ever smiled at these things.
