Too Much Information?


Kevin Drum writes...


QUOTE OF THE DAY....From John McCain spokesman Taylor Griffin, distancing the campaign from remarks about Social Security made by the almost comically gaffe-prone Carly Fiorina:

"The lesson of history is that too many specifics at this point polarize the debate, that is the argument Carly was trying to make."

Uh huh. Mark Kleiman translates: "If we told the retirees how completely we plan to shaft them, they might not vote for us."

  1. McCain's campaign is such an empty vessel. When I'm trying to be generous about the media's coverage of it, the thought occurs that there's a need for them to act as if there's something there. "As if" is the operative concept.
