John McCain, yesterday:

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said Tuesday night that the attacks on Sarah Palin, his former vice presidential running mate, are unlike anything he has ever seen.

"I’m entertained and sometimes a little angry when I see this constant, vicious attacks by people on the left," McCain said of Palin during an interview with Fox News’s Greta Van Susteren.

"’I’ve never seen anything like it in all the years that I’ve been in politics," McCain continued, "the viciousness and the personalization of the attacks on Sarah Palin."

Never seen anything like it in all these years, eh, Senator?

John McCain, 1998:

"Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly?"

Because her father is Janet Reno."

Should go without saying, but let's note anyway: teenage girl not involved in politics or public life versus attention-seeking, failed vice presidential candidate.
