John McCain thinks he’s Winston Churchill and Teddy Roosevelt.

I thought the contrast of Churchill’s eloquence and McCain’s feeble powers of oration and squeaky voice did not work to his advantage, and I did not buy into McCain’s expressions of humble patriotism. I think McCain has a pretty visible sense of entitlement.

If you’re young, hip, employed in the entertainment industry, and/or appropriately pigmented (and not too bright), congratulations! you may be one of the chosen ones, an Obama zombie.

As the Telegraph notes:

what remains to be seen is whether the American people continue to enjoy watching a bunch of celebrities congratulating themselves on being “the ones.”

Michael Goldfarb refers to L. Ron Obama, and observes:

Obama’s rhetoric was always empty, but coming from the man himself, eloquent as he is, everyone seemed willing to overlook how silly it all was. Once you get Jessica Alba and Scarlett Johanson repeating the same phrases and chanting his name as though he were some kind of political immortal–well, it all became far more transparent.

Jack Nicholson is supporting Hillary Clinton and has pitched in to support her campaign with this 1:18 video featuring excerpts from his own films.

In case you missed it, here’s Hillary’s 3:00 AM telephone commercial.

OK, we now know Obama is ready: ready to disarm, ready to withdraw, ready to surrender, even at 3:00 AM.

Hotline On Call (including sound):

Slate’s John Dickerson asked the obvious question:

“What foreign policy moment would you point to in Hillary’s career where she’s been tested by crisis?” he said.

Silence on the call. You could’ve knit a sweater in the time it took the usually verbose team of Mark Penn, Howard Wolfson and Lee Feinstein, Clinton’s national security director, to find a cogent answer. And what they came up with was weak — that she’s been endorsed by many high ranking members of the uniformed military.
