Bill Dupray at The Patriot Room has an excellent piece on the Democrat Party's continued refusal to do anything to help the American consumer. The final paragraph, however, echoes the same old concerns I have about McCain.
McCain should beat Obama like a rented mule with this issue and he will win over the bitter clingers whose weekly household incomes are being hobbled by high gas prices. It is a winning issue, because people care about the freakin’ endangered blind mole-rat right up until the time they figure out that the rat is the reason they can’t afford the gas to get to work to feed the family. Then they’ll want to run the little bastards over.
Yes, McCain should beat Obama with this issue, as he should with every issue, but McCain is McCain and therefore he continues to play Democrat on energy policy.
I still can't make up my mind whether we somehow managed to nominate the only Republican capable of winning the election in this obviously anti-Republican cycle, or whether we managed to nominate the only Republican who can't dominate Obama because he can't effectively argue in favor of conservative principles.
