jdm at Protein Wisdom [1] is coming to the conclusion I mentioned some weeks ago about McCain; THe one thing that can push him (And myself) to vote for McCain, is his Democrat party opponents.
Humorless (but confusing sarcasm for funny), snarky, dogmatic, hair-splitting , “loud”, incapable of understanding irony (especially when it occurs to themselves): religious leftists.
…and it occurs to me, I vote against these people.
I can see it now: at some point, during the next eight months, these people will cause me to decide to vote for McCain. I won’t hold my nose. I won’t need to get drunk. I may even pull the lever happily, just to piss off these religious leftists.
And if I recall correctly, this was pretty much the driving force in 2000 against the Democrat party then, too: The people who inhabit it. And well, yes, I suppose that would include the Cigar store Indian, wouldn’t it? If there’s one thing, though, that startles me here, it’s the level of vacuousness required to make McCain look good by comparison.
