Ellen Datlow offers the following challenge:
Tell me something about John McCain and/or Sarah Palin that will make me think well of them as candidates.
The best I could come up with is that their tactics — and increasingly obvious ineptitude — will send more voters running in the opposite direction. Hey, that’s something, right?
Seriously, it seems like there’s not a single day that goes by that there’s another reason to vote against John McCain in the upcoming election. Even on the good days, when he doesn’t throw a hissy fit and threaten to not show up at a presidential debate. (Gerry Canavan has more links on that.)
The best I can say for the McCain/Palin ticket is that it continues to surprise me. Every time I think it can’t get any worse, or sink any lower, it does.
