Adam McKay: Hold on, let me drop the facetious tone I was using for the front part of this piece. John McCain called his wife the C-word (or for people from England: cunt) in front of a bunch of...

The Question
Josh asks: If John McCain can't stand up to the North Carolina GOP swift-boat freaks, how can he stand up to al Qaeda? Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.
Wright v. Hagee
Why is cable news covering Rev. Wright and not Pastor Hagee, who repeated that God punished New Orleans? Ask them: Contact CNN Contact MSNBC But I'll give you the real answer. Wright is a scary...
Slash And Burn
Senator Clinton can't win. And if she were to win by nefariously convincing superdelegates to tip the scales in her favor, she'd lose the black vote in November and Senator McCain wins. Congressman...

Balance. I haven't seen this since I fell in love with it in 1990 -- the year it won the Oscar for Best Animated Short.
Liebercrats Go!
Oliver Willis agrees that Senator Clinton could run as an independent: So she’s going tooth and nail to bloody up Obama. Why? So he’ll lose? Is there any scenario where she could gracefully exit...

Anthony Hopkins as John Quincy Adams in Spielberg's Amistad. By the way, you can visit the Old Supreme Court inside the U.S. Capitol. It's breathtaking. Happy birthday to Djimon Hounsou.
The Clintons Love Fox News
They. Will. Run. As. Liebercrats. I'm almost to the point of betting money on this crazy idea of the Clintons running as a spoiler third party in the general. They're just that shameless. FOX News...

What Also Matters
Gas prices just jumped to $3.59/gallon in my area. I wish someone would have kept track of how many times the words "gas prices" and "close the deal" were used this morning on the very serious cable...
What Matters
While Chris Matthews and Joe Scarborough talk about choosing a president based on orange juice and bowling scores, shit like this happens (via Atrios): BAGHDAD (AFP) — A suicide car bomb and roadside...
Stupid Quote Of The Morning
Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC just said, "The New York Times hates Hillary." That's funny since the New York Times endorsed Senator Clinton. But okay, Mrs. Greenspan. I guess calling out Senator Clinton...
Rove Won The Day
As Sullivan points out, this race would've been much closer had Senator Clinton not resorted to attacks based on divisive politics. Farrakhan and the like. It's worth recalling what this primary came...
Clothing And Diners
I'm hearing Joe Scarborough and High Pitch Pat Buchanan complaining about Senator Obama's clothes. And now Chris Matthews is bringing up the diner factor. He's saying that old guys in diners mumble...
Leave Them Wanting More
Here's a crazy idea... Senator Clinton ought to bail out now while she's on top. Just saying. The New York Times has a more brutal suggestion: It is getting to be time for the superdelegates to do...
The Actual Spread
The traditional media is clearly trying to sculpt their narrative for this thing. Boosting Senator Clinton's victory gives them the ability to say over and over, "Why couldn't Senator Obama close the...
