The slogan to beat
They call Denver the Mile High City. "A mile high, an inch deep" - the slogan on the wall of the Republican war room here in Denver - is the claim to beat this week; not with counter slogans but with actions and words that make the claim itself look ridiculous and desperate.
Interesting take here on , though in stark political terms, does it not put the Mountain West (Montana's Democratic governor told me months ago: "Gun control is hitting what you shoot at!") out of reach?
Meanwhile, a spot-on piece in the Washington Post, with this crucial paragraph:
"The decision to pick Biden rather than someone who reinforced the change message at the heart of Obama's candidacy no doubt disillusioned some of Obama's grassroots supporters, but it said something about the Illinois senator that while obvious is not often remarked upon. His will to win is overpowering. The choice of Biden was a hard-headed, cold-blooded calculation that he may need a Biden to win and will certainly benefit from a Biden in governing, if he become president. It was the action of a politician, not a crusader."
The whole piece .
