And another thing…

STILL on US politics, who could forget the only good part of the 1988 presidential election when the Democratic vice-presidential candidate, Senator Lloyd Bentsen, slapped down wee Dan Quayle for trying to compare himself with JFK.

Now it looks like David Cameron’s trying to do the same with Obama. This from Conservative Home: “David Cameron: Barack Obama is the first of a new generation of leaders who will deliver change”.

Oh dearie me. You are many things, Dave, but you’re no Barack Obama (thank godness).

SARAH Palin is now accusing Obama of associating with terrorists. Would she have been ordered to do this if McCain’s campaign were confident of victory? And will the American people actually fall for it? 

I was about to ask if even she believed it, but then anyone who believes the earth is 6000 years old will believe anything.

The only plus-side to a McCain presidency is that America would have a VP who was just as entertaining as Dan (Just Say Noe) Quayle, though, admittedly, more dangerous.
