Hood drills McCain a new one. Responding to a JJ-type of letter, Steyn bitch-slaps Mitt for being a Kenny boy: By just taking it, debate after debate, Mitt gave the impression that, like Ken, he didn't even have private parts to be kneed in. Are we having fun, already?

I thought you would be gloating and crowing about Mitt's heroic win in Maine tonight? Is that a caucs so he could just buy the votes?
Hood didn't drill anyone anything.
Hey, when do you hear me gloating and/or crowing this election season? I find very little to gloat or crowd, except for my uncanny prediction that Giuliani will prove to be a very poor candidate, way back when he was riding at the top of the polls, and everyone around here was saying he's a shoo-in. But I don't say that with any kind off animus against Giuliani, whom I respect as a man.
The Steyn piece is marvelous. The letter-writer and Steyn's response. Point is, AI, it sure reads like a post-mortem.
McCain started it, years ago, and is reaping what he sowed. Don't be fooled — he knew exactly what he was doing all along, and is not surprised to find himself in a civil war with the mainstream of his party and with the conservative movement.
This is pretty damning. For someone who wants to be nominated the standard-bearer of a major party to find himself in some kind of civil war with the mainstream of said party is rather unprecedented, no? And it does not augur well at all for the chances of that party in the general election, I think. Just repeating over and over, "roll over, and get on with the program", is no way to rally the troops...
About Steyn: Yep, he's on a tear (as long as doesn't disagree with you, eh?) But, yes, he's getting dispirited by the lack of fire-in-the-belly exhibited by Romney. What do you want -- the guy is just a businessman, not a back-alley knuckle-ball fighter. Still, he fights better than Giuliani.
Not unprecedented at all. It's leadership (when it works).
I am just like the letter writer, you were right. And Steyn acknowledges that I and the letter-writer are right. That he says it etter than either of us could is a testament to his sill as a writer, but not to his skill as a pundit. He thinks ROmney is a plausible candidate. I think he's Dukakis.
BTW, AI, a knuckleball is a pitch, not a punch.
Not if it's bare knuckles in the balls. You gotta learn the subtleties of Continental English, JJ.
Nice cartoon. Where's the surge?
BTW, added NROcorner to the sidebar.
Which continent is that, AI? Asia?
Europe. Kind of up, but mostly to the left of Asia.
