Say what you will about Al Sharpton (and there is plenty to say), he has not done a bad job in the course of his idiotic run for the presidency. Maybe it's because expectations were low to nil, but he has not come across as a total crazy man. He has managed to show to good effect his wit and his speaking ability. And with comments like the one reported here, he shows some pretty good insight into politics. You don't have to like him or anything he stands for (and, believe me, I don't) to say he has done OK for himself in this race. If he set out to do nothing more than shove Jesse into the back seat, I'd say he has succeeded.
