Did Beej Best Voyageur?

First off – PLEASE DON’T PROMOTE THIS TO THE FRONT PAGE. This is a bit of whimsy that’s unworthy of it.

Now, to the main point… Beej, who every reliable poll indicates is soon to be $100 poorer thanks to betting that Tancredo will beat Hickenlooper with Voyageur, has recently demanded an apology from V over a comment said in anger when beej insulted V. (Personally, I think beej is trying to lay cover for his intent to welsh on his foolish bet.) Alright, I know better than to put my hand in the middle of a catfight, but this comment leaped out at me:

Actually, the more likely situation is that your narcissism won’t let you apologize to a “pissant grad student” who has bested you.

In my judgment, the true victor in all their exchanges has been Voyageur, based upon his superior wit and reasoning ability, but I think it ought to be put to the greater Pols community for a vote.

UPDATE (10/24, 10:50am): Don’t forget to discuss your reasons why you voted as you did, especially those of you voting “yes.”
