Satire or Not? You Be the Judge

By Patterico on Judiciary
Patterico's Pontifications

See if you can guess where this passage appeared:
    Democrats signaled that whoever the nominee is, their 
three likely lines of attack will be to assert the White
House did not consult them sufficiently, then paint the
nominee as ideologically extreme and finally assert that
the Senate had not received sufficient documents about
the candidate.

A Scrappleface post? A Pennywit satire of the likely Democratic response?

No. Unfortunately, this is an actual passage from a serious Washington Post article about the upcoming judicial wars.

Yup: “whoever the nominee is” . . . Gotta love that sincerity.
