NRO Editor (…and let’s face it, they’re all "editors" at NRO because Buckley gave out editorshps like breath mints in lieu of, you know, money) Rich Lowry delicately explains how John McCain can use subterfuge to dazzle the masses with his sincerity and principles:
McCain should absolutely unload on Stevens, and frame it as the sort of dysfunction and corruption in Congress that he has long railed against. A good way to get some indie cred without upsetting any conservatives.
Should McCain hold a press conference to express his antipathy for Stevens, I’ll put up 50 bucks to any enterprising journalist who keeps coughing "Keating…Keating" into his fist while McCain speaks.
They may get excluded from the next McCain BBQ, but for fifty bucks they can buy their own damn ribs and chicken.

Hell, I’ll throw in another fifty bucks. How much can we organize?
This Arizonan is willing to sponsor -anybody- from The New Times to go to the next presser and ask some questions that didn’t get answered the last time. I’d say Tom Fitzpatrick (http://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/1989-11-29/news/mccain-the-most-reprehensible-of-the-keating-five/) but I think he’s gone….
Some of McCain’s camp followers are no longer in his thrall. Read more. http://www.tagg-lines.com/2008…..ative.html
Don’t you know McCain’s the anti-Washington insurgent with 25 years’ experience in Washington, which is exactly what you need to uncover and reform the corrupt …
… sorry; I just lost some IQ points. What was I getting at?
. . . Ribs, chicken, a bag of charcoal briquets and a small grill.
RickMassimo: as soon as I saw your comment I thought of Harold Ickes describing Wendell Willkie:
Please. McC is going to pretend he doesn’ know who the F- this Stevens dude is. Cause that’s how they roll.
Of couse, big Ted looks to be unwilling to go quitely, so it could get interesting.
Duh, quietly, sorry,
Lowry, ever the font of wisdom and insight.
Good to know some things never change.
