Whom did Gawker Empire owner Nick Denton pay for this glowing review?
Enough about Hillary: How’d things work out in New Hampshire for D.C.’s other It Girl — yoga-teacher-by-day, celebrity-stalker-by-night Liz Glover? Some weeks ago, we told you about her charming habit of asking VIPs to pose with her for a picture snapped by her pink-and-green plastic Barbie Polaroid — a great conversation-starter, it seems, with New York and Los Angeles types, but somehow a skunk-at-the-garden-party moment for high-powered Washingtonians. (Tim Russert shrank from her in horror at a “Meet the Press” gala.)
But on assignment in the Granite State as a videorazza for the political blog Wonkette, Glover’s had much better luck with the same sort of folks who cold-shoulder her here, scoring cute pix with Bill Kristol, Chris Matthews and Sean Hannity. What gives?
“There are a lot of people around asking to have their pictures taken with them,” she told us. “Maybe they think I might be a voter.” You know, just one of those earnest heartland types toting a pink-and-green plastic Barbie Polaroid.
Glover, the owner of Bikram Yoga Capitol Hill, had less luck with the candidates, getting closeups only with Dennis Kucinich and Ron Paul – the latter one of the most viewed items on Wonkette this week, for some reason.
