uh, he's been bald since before he was placing ads for sex (while decrying gay promiscuity). xp
Posted on the Marriage to Alfred thread.... G.G. chronicles Sullivan's move from indifference toward Obama's "evolution" to full-on Daddy weeping:

Spurred on by all the bad news for Obama last week, Sullivan has been in overdrive the last two or three days. It's June 11--I do believe he's headed for some sort of meltdown if Obama starts consistently running behind in the polls.

Skipping how Romney measures up against normal campaign legerdemain--I imagine he's worse than most, although not all that much worse--I'm quite sure Nixon in '72 (and probably '68, too) takes that prize with room to spare.

Yes, I take major exception to Romney being the most mendacious of candidates. He's got serious competition.

Tom Hardy says he experimented with gay sex. There are rumors that he played Bane in the latest Batman movie. I have to say: I couldn't tell. And couldn't understand almost anything he said. What a steaming pile of crap that movie was.

"But he is, in some ways, a pellucidly bright plant bred in the conservative movement's hydroponic greenhouse." Exactly--that's why his ears are big and his clothes don't fit.

Some nicely turned phrases by Sullivan in that post. Maybe he had extra time to work on it over his vacation. It's a more persuasive conservative dis on Ryan than the David Stockman op-ed that ran in the NY Times last week.

But a question: If someone is that out of touch with reality, why are they given jobs as analysts in television or the newspapers? If a dentist drilled into your forehead rather than your tooth, he'd be accountable. Those paid handsomely to examine the American social and political landscape can miss by the same mile and blithely carry on as if nothing had happened.
Agreed (he's specifically talking about George Will). But didn't Sullivan himself flat-out declare that Obama was finished after the first debate?

I might, though I'm pretty sure he'd say the same thing he always says: he's a blogger, not an analyst, and his job is to write down his immediate reactions unfiltered. That's his umbrella explanation for everything.

this fucking guy
But he just got RE-ELECTED. It's a classic time for magnanimity - and yet he began the critical negotiations by poking the defeated GOP in the eye. This is not the new politics. It's the old partisanship. I hope it works. I fear it won't.
re Obama's new belligerence.

I just heard David Brooks on NPR saying something similar: deep down GOP realizes Obama has a mandate to raise taxes on the rich, but they need some time to get their head around it, so Obama needs to be gentle with them.
