called Obama a “thespian,” and ... sarcastically referred to the junior senator from Illinois as a “wunderkind.”
Those unschooled in political history should be informed that he's recycling one of the oldest of campaign jokes: "in his youth my opponent was a thespian down at the university, where the boys and girls matriculate together.
No idea what they'll make of "wunderkind." Maybe they can repackage it as a lunch special.

Reminds me of the line "My opponent indulges in philately and has been known to read photographic magazines!"
Over at Faculty Lounge, they're declaring "Buffenbarger" to be a new verb - as in "Hillary Clinton got Buffenbargered". There's also a new bumper sticker out: Latte drinking Prius driving Democrat for Obama.
Backfire city.
Re "photographic magazines," my friend Anon points out that there was a day when that meant exactly what you suggest it might mean.
Someone should ask Buffenbarger about the Cadillac he drives or the corporate jet he flies around in.
