Have you seen the latest NH campaign ad?

Ron Paul does not blink ONCE throughout the entire video. :eek:

Compare this to John McCain, who apparently cannot keep his eyes open:

I read somewhere that not blinking is considered by Japanese to be a sign of an extremely strong and powerful personality.

Technically, it just means your eyes aren't dry or irritated.

I'm pretty sure that I read that excessive blinking can also be the sign of someone who is lying (I read in some article a long time ago about how to tell if someone is lying).

I'm sure Ron Paul was coached (or already knew) that not blinking is a subtle but powerful indicator of being honest.

Actually, isn't not blinking something that they train actors to do on camera?

Anyway, my point is that Ron Paul knows what he's doing!!! :D

I can't wait to see what happens next!
