I'll just come out and say it: If Barack Obama loses this election, it will be Hillary Clinton's fault. She does nothing but undermine Barack. She needs to get over herself and get with the program.

Look, he's already got an entire country of racists determined to tear him down. It'll be a miracle if he wins.

He's bending over backwards to accommodate the angry old white women at the convention by allowing Hillary to speak. What more do they want? I mean, what's he supposed to do? Kiss their wrinkly fat asses? They get a whole night to themselves: Call it (Old) Girls Night Out. Okay, okay, that's not funny.

Look. This is a historic election. Do you want to throw away 4 or 8 years plus the Supreme Court plus Roe v. Wade? It's up to you.

Look, just keep your voice down, okay? The neighbors are reading this blog.

Hey, are you doing any laundry tonight? Can you throw in a few things for me while you're at it? All my white shirts are dirty. Thanks.

Mark Halperin actually listed "mystery person" as a choice for the two presidential candidates.

Mystery person!

Hell, my 15-week-old kittens could have told me that.

Oh. It's after 4:00 on a Friday. He must be on his way to the Hamptons for the weekend.

Nice work if you can get it. Meanwhile, I think I have adrenal failure.

"Perhaps we aren't doomed after all" is what Michael Gerson thinks about John McCain's performance at Rick Warren's Saddleback Civic Forum with the presidential candidates. In other words, McCain gives Gerson hope that the Republicans can win the White House in November.

I watched the forum and I've read almost every assessment of it I can get my hands on, from Bill Kristol to Mike Madden to Byron York to Chris Cillizza to Rod Dreher to Stephen Suh to Catholics to gays. I've read about the merits of style and pay grades and character. I've read about which pat answer is the best pat answer, at least to cater to the people whose vote apparently matters more than mine: the almighty evangelical Christian voters. After two faith forums in this election cycle, I've come to some conclusions.

It doesn't matter if McCain ripped off Solzhenitsyn, it doesn't matter if McCain wasn't in a cone of silence, it doesn't matter if McCain offers to go to the mythical gates of hell to get Osama bin Laden. It doesn't matter who lies or who tells the truth.

What matters is that Barack Obama is wasting his time courting voters who will never vote for him.
