That stuff doesn't bother me much. Crowds in line being provoked by cameras and demonstrators is pretty de rigeur. If you reverse the sides, you probably would hear the same thing. The election seems to have sunk into the strangest petty places. Who cares about poor Joe the Plumber? Plant or not, he asks a question that allowed some clarification of issues. Far more upsetting are the robocalls- shame on McCain. One article I saw this morning did make me laugh. It's another attempt at trying to give Palin "foreign policy" experience, and claims that she is "cosmopolitan". I won't post the whole long article because so much of it is absurd. Sarah Palin, like any Alaska governor, is certainly more cosmopolitan in world outlook than her insular colleagues in the lower 48 online.wsj.com The tone of it is best illustrated by this sentence: "Some of the hoity-toity conservatives in the National Review crowd were shocked and appalled at the Palin interviews. Wrinkling their noses at the smell of mooseburgers cooking on the grill, they could hardly eat their pheasant under glass, stuffed with pate de foie gras and truffles. They called for Palin to be thrown under the harpsichord." CUlture wars much?
