Last political post of the month, I promise.
Slate‘s Emily Blazeon writes of a certain person seeking the Oval Office:
This is a man whose life is filled with poisoned intimate relationships and who appears to be responsible for much of the poisoning. It’s not only the religious or the uptight that can be put off by an utter lack of personal morality in a presidential candidate.
Really? I seem to remember a time not very long ago when a political party for which 99 percent of Slate‘s staff seems to vote every year insisting that exactly the opposite was true.
I say this not to chastise my friends at Slate–goodness knows this change in worldview can only be positivie–but merely to welcome them to the Land of the Unsophisticated Prigs.
I can only hope that they’ll still think this way after Giuliani loses the GOP nomination and Hillary wins the Democratic one.
