Pitching a hammock across History and mumbling, “Whatever…”

November 10, 2008 By admin

These are Bill Kristol’s actual words in the NYT today:

Here, in a few sentences, Obama did the following: He deepened his bond with every dog lover in America. He identified with every household that’s tried to figure out what kind of dog to get. He touched every parent with a kid allergic to pets. He showed compassion by preferring a dog from a shelter. And he demonstrated a dry and slightly politically incorrect wit by commenting that “a lot of shelter dogs are mutts like me.”

Not bad. It could be a tough four or eight years for conservatives.

Just a reminder, now: this man HAS A COLUMN IN THE NEW YORK TIMES.
