Conservative Cabal

Was that the best line of this debate?

I didn’t see the whole thing yet but what I did see did not impress me. The media had built it up as something McCain had to hit out of the park, and this was dutifully repeated by pundits on both sides. He didn’t, but did we expect him to? And then what was that about buying up everyone’s homes to provide security? WHAT?

Meanwhile, Obama’s campaign continues to lie about his positions, selling them as more centrist than they are.  (I just watched a TV ad about Obama’s healthcare plan suggesting that he is not for socialized medicine. Right. Of course, that’s exactly where his proposals would land us!) But whatever, no one reads anymore, and they think they want change, and this guy, as a friend recently said, is like an actor playing a black man running for President. Can voters raised in this culture resist that?

Andy McCarthy over at the Corner says the same things I’m feeling, but rather more strongly…
