TUESDAY, JUNE 3
This evening John McCain may have proven that he has POTUS potential. His speech was good. We all know he is not orater. So what? Evidently even conservative bloggers (they hate him anyway) are pulling his speech apart. Evidently he may be entering that rarefied atmospher of a serious GOP POTUS asparant. He can't please anyone. That's a very good sign.

Some people think that retrosexuals automatically have Neanderthal views about women, but this is not the case. A retrosexual is simply someone who doesn't know the difference between teal and aqua, and frankly couldn't give a damn….” They call him Retrosexual. The ... more »
