...laughs and wardrobe choices guarantees that even the tiniest misstep will be recorded, documented, and analyzed by Wonkette et al. It’s no wonder that campaign managers have become savvy calculators of risk micro-management.

What we need is a candidate with fire and drive, somebody respectful of America’s ideals and seasoned politically, yet bold enough to suggest drastic reform if the case calls for it. We?...

In the old days, the Best Picture prize went to box-office hits like Casablanca, The Bridge on the River Kwai, The Sound of Music.
