there is probably an interesting story behind that

McCain, however, appears to be less interested in speaking to the millions of Clinton voters who fall somewhere between the cracks, and more interested in engaging the handful of crazies who dislike Barack Obama for wholly irrational reasons. Take Will Bower, the founder of a group called PUMA ("Party Unity My Ass"). On Saturday, Bower met with John McCain. On Wednesday, Bower attended Larry Sinclair's press conference, saw Sinclair literally accuse Obama of murder, saw Sinclair's lawyer wearing a kilt, saw Sinclair flee the room after the press conference because he was moments away from being arrested, and came away saying that Sinclair's story was "worth exploring". That means that McCain is either one or two degrees removed from the lunatic fringe, depending on what you think of Bower's state of mind.

Yeah - there's a story worth exploring there - if you're a horrible and idiotic candidate for a party who's best idea since 1916 has been...umm...opening up relations with China after a few decades (though they were against it until they could do it).

Please - somebody - tell me something the morons have done...

Dude, Ronald Reagan SINGLE-HANDEDLY ended the Cold War. Look it up in a Republican history book - The National Review probably publishes one.

Hey - Nixon had negative income tax credit, EPA, OSHA, price controls and foreign policy of triangulation (which was based on diplomacy rather that Bush's which is based on fighting a 2-front war at all times). Not too shabby.

Since him, there hasn't been much if you aren't rich.
