Kerry Convicted.

There was a lame science fiction novel a few years back about the world in ecological collapse, one of those Green wet dreams. There was a very interesting thread running through an otherwise stupid book though. It involved people called "convictors" who could use sophisticated software and linguistic analysis to develop a true portrait of public figure. What appeared on a kind of proto-Internet was a picture of the real person with all the perversions and prejudices right up there in living color. Mark Steyn does something similar to JFK, Mark II, here.
