We have to hope the country makes the right choice. McCain's gone beyond the line. Palin has no clue what she's doing.
- BarbinMD on McCain and Palin: The Politics of Hate.
- TMV Columnist Tony Campbell, A red flag for the Secret Service?
- John Aravosis, appalled that Palin's mob of supporters turned on a black journalist and yelled "sit down, boy."
- Eric Martin on the Pretty Hate Machine.
- TMV columnist Shaun Mullen, Is this what it comes down to?
- Andrew Sullivan, McCain and Palin crossing the line.
- Pam Spaulding, The GOP ticket draws, and apparently embraces, the bigot eruption crowd
- Steve Benen:
Four years ago, the field of Democratic presidential hopefuls spent most of their time explaining how much different they would be from Bush/Cheney. Before long, Karl Rove sent out word to the Republican Machine: label the candidates and their supporters "angry." The goal, of course, was to characterize Bush/Cheney as optimistic and hopeful, while painting Democrats as wild-eyed, rage-driven nuts.It's almost comical in retrospect.
I choose hope.
