Acerbicity
Not sure if 'acerbicity' is a real word but nothing else will do to describe George Will's column this morning. (I've posted it on my articles page because reading it requires registration at the WaPo and many other outlets; also, it's slightly edited at a few places like the Hartford Courant; one wonders how they can get away with that.) It is an awesome summary of what's profoundly and deeply wrong with the so-called leading Republican contenders. He doesn't mince a single thought or word and I only wish I had written it myself. Read it.
I indeed have already said, although less compellingly, what Medved says in this article, especially the parts about Romney, McCain and Huckabee needing to be positive and upbeat or they're going to hand the Democrats a landslide. In fact, if Obama continues to hold even a little of the excitement he attracts at the moment, and continues to be adult and calm, I am quite sure he will win with enormous numbers.
