Newsweek's Anna Quindlen is jumping the gun on attacking McCain on one of his many general election vulnerabilities. The green light will be a hit piece in the New York Times.

You’re right, I’m sure, but I doubt the media needs any help. McCain’s nomination is an absolute guarantee that the Democrat wins. He’s a pro-war liberal, and that means he’s not getting elected. Democrats will crawl back to the Clinton trough in November while McCain will cause enough people to stay home.
To: Plutarch
How many of these stories are we going to see between now and November? The media is just setting up the GOP for the kill. The minute McCain gets the nomination he is going to get hammered by every news outlet from every direction. We better hope that some level-headed Republicans will be in the voting booths on Super Tuesday.

And so it begins...
Sure the MSM loves McCain when he's fighting conservatives. But not when he's facing St. Obama or Madame Hillary.

Tonight the GOP voters in Florida made it up to the Democrats for what happened in 2000. The Democrats must be SO HAPPY with their win of the White House tonight.

At my age, I stop thinking about a gal when she reaches the mid to late 50s, but then that is the other end of the window. She has to be really hot at 60 to get my attention.

If you’re 60 and both your parents died at 62, you’re old. McCain’s mother is still going strong in up 90’s. For McCain’s line, he might just be on the old side of “middle age”...

Older people still vote. What’s the big deal?

Both Reagan and Bush aged well during their two terms. Most of us look different than we did eight years ago. Clinton, Nixon, Carter and Johnson all aged dramatically.
Hey, something just occurred to me. If Gore really won in 2000, maybe that explains why Bush still looks great and Al looks like he's ready for a bypass.

Not a big McCain fan but here’s a better question for you Anna for he Democrat side - how stupid is too stupid?
