"They say 'America First,' but they mean America next."

I've been out of the country, so I didn't hear what McCain's slogan from the convention was until I read yesterday's paper this morning. "Country First"? Really? How could they have missed the fascist historical associations of that phrasing? Do these people not listen to Woody Guthrie tunes? Specifically the one about Charles Lindbergh?

No, of course they don't; what was I thinking. But you can.

To be honest, I always thought (with no insult intended) that Clinton's preferred campaign song should be Meredith Brooks' "Bitch".

It's the ultimate "reclaiming" song.

"Tomorrow I might change, and today won't mean a thing!" Um. Not high on my list of wise political moves, frankly.

Also I think there were several people who would have wanted her any other way. Any other way, in some cases.
