Endorsing McCain

Cobb has a good one, the best I’ve seen. It’s a version of the old get 50 percent of what you want or 100 percent of nothing.

",,,the real news here is what a Romney failure means in light of what social conservatives aim to do in the GOP. I think it means that we break from a full press to the right on every issue to a reasonable press on the issues that matter most, National Security and the Economy."

He raises the specter of a Hilarity/Obama ticket. I hadn’t thought of that. Be one heck of a flip for Obama to make, though. But if he’s right, and I think he is, that national security is the leading, if not the only, issue, whatever the Dems and the MSM say, McCain and (probably) Giuliani with him can take all the marbles. If McC. can just control his temper and stop being a jerk.

RNC tries to hide its glee

Longtime, dedicated cheerleaders for the Democrats, the MSM would have you believe there’s a groundswell of voter enthusiasm for Hilarity and Obama. Republican National Committee chairman Mike Duncan, whose polling shows otherwise, is trying not to grin:

"For Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (N.Y.), Duncan says it comes down to [lack of] trust. Sen. Barack Obama’s (Ill.) weakness, on the other hand, is his [lack of] experience, according to Duncan."

Notice the double attribution? That’s the MSM making sure its Dem followers don’t think it’s saying these negative things. I think either one will be easy to beat, but Hilarity, with Slick Willie for baggage, would be the easiest.

In perspective

Equal time for Huckafrudy. Call it the seldom-alluded-to context missing from Hilarity’s "campaign."
