I Love Obama Today [John Podhoretz]
No politician in recent years has said anything quite as brilliantly wicked as Barack Obama speaking of John Edwards, as reported by The Hill :
“I want to wait and hear what John Edwards has to say, he’s kind of good-looking,” Obama envisioned Iowa caucus-goers from the small town of Clinton telling themselves. During an appearance in West Burlington, Iowa, the phrase appeared again, this time with Edwards as “kind of cute.”
It's not quite Churchill in the back benches, but this ingenuously artful reduction of Edwards suggests Obama has more to offer than audacious hope. He's got some acid on his tongue. This could be fun.
