Wrong as usual

No...as usual you take a stand and keep to it no matter what the evidence. I laid out exactly where I differed with her, posted figures as to why I thought she was being foolish, quoted the view of the organizers, and all you do is whine about my being unfair to her. No. I am not being unfair to her. I am reporting how her campaign (perhaps I should emphasize HER CAMPAIGN, not her per se) is consistently behaving in an imperious, rude and quite possible poorly strategic manner. You should well know that I have gotten flak for doing the same thing to campaigns I support when I thought they were making mistakes. If somehow I am tarnishing your Saint's halo, tough.

Now I have better things to do. At least this time you contributed two bits of actual useful information bfore turning the discussion into twaddle. The article regarding her past involvement with Indian Country and the article suggesting that she will only kiss the biggest of asses (in this case big labor, a force I sometimes love sometimes hate) and 500,000 grassroots activists and, currently, Indian Country don't have big enough asses even collectively for her.

Then again, YOU are the one who is viewing everything as kissing ass. I have, from the beginning, viewed it as who she and the other candidates find worth communicating ideas with. But you have to always bring it to the level of whose kissing whose ass, I guess. But I'm done with this dicussion.

Words to live by

What distinguished [Mr. McCain's] posse from Mr. Obama’s throng was not just its age but its demographic monotony: all white and nearly all male.

For Mr. McCain, this albatross may be harder to shake than George W. Bush and Iraq, particularly in a faceoff with Mr. Obama. When Mr. McCain jokingly invoked the Obama slogan “I am fired up and ready to go” in his speech Tuesday night, it was as cringe-inducing as the white covers of R & B songs in the 1950s — or Mitt Romney’s stab at communing with his inner hip-hop on Martin Luther King’s birthday. Trapped in an archaic black-and-white newsreel, the G.O.P. looks more like a nostalgic relic than a national political party in contemporary America. A cultural sea change has passed it by.
