But whatever the outcome, let's pause to savor the moment. It is historic. McCain is the first ever third-party candidate licensed to run against a major political party by that party itself.

Move over, Alice. We're all falling down the rabbit hole.

Rabbit hole is right. He didn't even get most of the bizarre, even loopy, ironies in this campaign. If Palin was a Democrat except with a pro-choice position and without the Christianity (and yes, she could still have chosen not to have an abortion with a pro-choice political position), she would have been absolutely vilified by the same people who are treating her like The One now.

>>And now, a campaign commercial for the Republican candidates boasts of McCain and his running mate Sarah Palin that "He battled Republicans and reformed Washington. She battled Republicans and reformed Alaska."<<

Ron -

This ad struck me as rather odd. If McCain has already reformed Washington, as the ad claims, why does it now need to be changed?
