Senator Obama, I Am Not President Bush

"I'm President Nixon."

Actually, McCain's Mr. 90 percent supportive of Bush, which has turned out to be a lousy bet: Mr. 90 percent support of Mr. 20 percent approval. Stuff happens...particularly if you've got such a manifestly unqualified Chief Executive.

Duh.

I posted my impression of last night's event at First Draft--as bad as McCain appeared in relation to Obama, certain elements of the punditry did their damndest to declare him "the victor," which tells you more about Villager mentality than anything else. I mean, it's beyond astonishing that they'd claim someone a winner who at times looked more like he wanted to crawl out of his own skin, and whose ultimate moment of grandiloquence was the solemn declaration that he was NOT George W. Bush...which took about as much political courage as a strong statement in defense of freedom.

They really DO live on a different planet than the rest of us.
