Only In DC...

So I was at a bar the other night and I went to the bathroom, as will happen. Littering the walls was the usual crude bathroom scrawl. I'm normally not terribly attentive, but this time I happened to look over and find the strangest writing:"Is John Edwards still the second best democracy?"

The thing that really puzzles me is how this fits into the well defined genera of bathroom scribbling? If there were some sort of insult, maybe. But who goes to a bar and attempts to engage in political discourse on the stall wall?

What a strange town.
