1. It was impossible to count the blinks because
the rolling of the eyes was too distracting.

2. it's not the blinking I noticed
It was his constant snorting, plus he sounded like someone with a respiratory disease, like he could barely breathe.

4. My cousin is a psychologist who has his own practice, and he just

8. I was watching him at one point when Obama was speaking and McCain was
freaking me the hell out. The blinking and weird facial movements.

10. I think his left eye has an involuntary blink, so he compensates by blinking
both when that happens. I saw his left eye go first, then the right eye.
