Maybe Romney went a little overboard with invocations to peace and economic development as the answer to everything as if he were a risen George McGovern. But he realized that his task was not to make foreign policy — he’s not president yet — but to win an election, and like a good professional he concentrated on that task.

Suspended Non-ReanimationBy Michael WalshOctober 30, 2012 1:48 P.M. Comments9Does anyone else find it deliciously ironic that Hurricane Sandy has forced the “suspension” of the Obama campaign while the president play-acts the role of nurturer-in-chief in the aftermath of the storm? Recall that John McCain disastrously suspended his “campaign” four years ago to sit around and look worried about the unfolding financial crisis, and while that alone did not cost him election, it did allow candidate Obama to both eat McCain’s lunch out on the hustings and appear as “no-drama Obama” to an electorate that knew virtually nothing about the nice young man, in contrast the panicky old codger whose ability to influence the course of events was precisely zero.
Neither man was president, dipshit.

Covering All the Bases
By Mark Steyn
As the President says, women are not an interest group. No, sir, they’re several interest groups, and one can’t but admire the generational thoroughness of the Democratic campaign with their precisely targeted advertising: Barack Obama will satisfy your lady parts, deflower your daughter, turn your grade-schooler into a glassy-eyed Kim Jong-Il extra, and get gran’ma mouthing like a gangsta ho. What, nothing for the horny-cougar demographic?

K-Lo has more thoughts:
That said, I heard from one first responder in Brigantine, New Jersey, who was taking a break and checking what we were saying. (Always so humbling to know that when you get a line you might be checking in on us!) He has no access to any of the coverage of the visit, but he was on the ground at the time. He says the president wound up in the most Republican ward of the city. He reports that one person close to him who still has a W sticker on his car “walked through 60 degree water” to see President Obama because he is the president of the United States and appreciated that he was bringing attention to their devastation, and showing some solidarity with them as they face rebuilding and other choices about how to go forward.

In addition to the smarmy, smutty tone, the ad was an ugly, desperate attempt to manipulate young women into voting for Obama, on the general grounds that he is “a great guy,” and “cool.” Apart from the fact that neither of those qualities are really at the top of the list of key attributes for boyfriends or leaders of the free world, the ad occasioned disgust because it was a new cultural low.

Nordlinger brags about his black friend, to Marilyn Horne:
http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/332271/hornes-aplenty-jay-nordlinger
Marilyn Horne and Lena Horne became good friends — and Lena would tell her, “We’re sistahs under the skin.” This leads me to tell her about Rachel Noerdlinger, who is press secretary to Al Sharpton. She calls me Brother Jay, and I call her Sister Rachel.
