Character?
I usually like Dan Balz of the Washington Post. He seems like a straight ahead reporter without the ego of people like Dana Milbank. But he has a line in today’s paper that is just shocking. In a piece mostly devoted to the problems that McCain confronts in the election he says:
As in the primaries, he has been reduced to basics, and they have served him well over the past two months. His best hope of winning is to make the campaign a test of character.
Has he not been paying attention? Can he still suggest that McCain possesses the superior “character” in this race? With all the deceit and hypocrisy pouring out of the McCain, how can he possibly run on “character?”
Come on!
