Providing that Obama can hold on, Harvard’s Republicans will need to do some soul-searching. I agree that McCain is no Bush, but George W. Bush was not a one-man show, and the real problem today lies with the entire American Right. What kind of campaign explicitly states that one part of the country is more American than the other? What kind of party lets incompetent Regent University cronies like Monica Goodling infiltrate the federal administration because they share a belief in the second coming of Christ?

...Palin resembled a "high schooler trying to BS her way through a book report," which is an insult to both high schoolers and BS. Palin's answers were hesitant, convoluted and, at times - like when she appeared to suggest that Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin might be preparing a one-man airborne invasion of Alaska - downright loony...
