leaving the Titanic

More delicious, plump juicy rats jumping ship these days - Arne, lil' Scotty, Colin, Christopher Buckley,William Weld, and now Charles Fried who was actually an adviser to the McCain campaign. It is pretty wonderful. I think these people had a very different notion of who McCain is and their disappointment is vast. Even Jon Stewart seems genuinely pissed off about all the "real" America talk. I do have a bit of a beef with Stewart and Letterman - they helped create the myth of the so called maverick Mcnut. Both of them had him on under very friendly circumstances, and frankly, his politics have always been quite horrible, although now they are extremely horrible, and having him on their shows gave him credibility he didn't deserve. Even though I am generally unforgiving, I have forgiven Jon Stewart.

I go on line and what do I find, but an interview with a former, although I have to admit anonymous, who also said that McCain was happy to mudsling, unless he was caught at it, so this horrible campaign is ultimately not only his responsibility, but in his loathsome nature.
