What is “nauseatingly vapid and … valuable as a symbol of our nation’s pointless, juvenile political media?”

Glenn Greenwald, of course! Pot/kettle and so forth…. What can I say? Conor (with one N) Friedersdorf is never aorund when you need him.

Few media behaviors are more pitiful than the intense fixation over the “Veepstakes”: a word that is at once nauseatingly vapid and yet incomparably valuable as a symbol of our nation’s pointless, juvenile political media.
