A "Nightmare" Of A Candidate

So “Senator Honor And Virtue” is telling everyone in his latest T.V. ad that he’s “The Democrats’ Worst Nightmare,” is he?

Well, this tells us that the race has tightened up between McCain and a Democratic opponent, I’ll admit, but I would point out two things first: 1) They aren’t running head to head yet (and I like all three of our front runners better than any of the Repugs, though I’m partial of course), and 2) It’s not assured by any means that McCain will end up winning the Republican nomination.

Besides, all one has to do to find out what’s going on with “The Straight Talk Express” is to read here about his Baghdad photo-op, among other missteps (with too many of the American sheeple apparently lulled into the notion that Iraq is just hunky dory right now if The Almighty Petraeus says so) and his unflinching Bushco orthodoxy (and what “good company” he keeps also, as you can see here; D’Amato is a stooge, but Phil Gramm is one of the authors of our present misery as former chairman of the Senate Banking Commission – his wife made sure Enron was exempt from federal oversight while she served on the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, as noted here, and Gramm said he couldn’t feel sorry for 80-year-old Social Security recipients because “most of them don’t live that long”).

Typical Repug, all cut from the same unholy cloth (and besides, this notes that McCain still has to win over the lunatic fringe of his own party).
