...axis," and said a President is "not elected to the ruling class but to the servant class." He could weave the story of his son cooking a cake with too much salt into a parable about the perils of gay marriage. He could perfectly capture the struggles of Mitt Romney's campaign with a joke about expensive dog food. The punch line: "The dogs won't eat the darn stuff...

...secure the nomination. Just two months ago, the Arizona Senator was still a distant long shot, operating a bare-bones campaign on a bank loan with a dilapidated staff of mostly unpaid advisors. Then almost everything broke his way: Mike Huckabee won Iowa, crippling the powerhouse campaign of Mitt Romney. Rudy Giuliani abandoned New Hampshire, allowing his moderate supporters to shift to McCain.

As it stands, he is still too busy attempting to convince his party and its conservative base that he is not to be feared. Witness his latest endorsement road show: Mitt Romney in Boston, George H.W. Bush in Houston and a bunch of big-name Republican Representatives in Washington. These are the moves of a man still speaking to his party's base...

...said something dumb. And if the Clinton campaign crashes and burns, maybe she was just another politician with name recognition and a lot of money who ran for President and never connected. There's far more precedent for that - ask Presidents Dewey or Stevenson or Humphrey or Thompson or Romney - than there is for a less parsimonious explanation...
