It must be a trend. First George Will, and now Charles Krauthammer, have done all but come out and admit that John McCain is temperamentally unsuited to be President.

I'm by no means an Electoral Map geek, but I have followed with interest the fact - let's face it - that Obama hasn't done well with working-class, older, lower-income whites: the old-line "classic" Democrats.

And I've been concerned that this phenomenon, given the way that the Electoral College magnifies even a narrow win within a single state, could indeed translate to a McCain victory this fall.

Tomorrow, Vice-President Cheney is off to the Middle East. Part of his agenda will likely be a stopover in Saudi Arabia to try and convince the Saudis to increase oil production and provide some easing on world prices. Charmer that he is, I'm sure Cheney will succeed and we'll all be back to the good old days before you know it.

After last night's Chesapeake Massacre, I watched Hillary's stump speech in Texas. So obviously a hands-over-ears, "la-la-la-can't hear you," reality-denying moment. Still I expected to hear a congratulations to Senator Obama on his victories, but none was forthcoming.

A US District Judge has invalidated part of a 2001 Executive Order which "allowed former presidents and vice presidents to review executive records before they are released under the Freedom of Information Act." Full story is here.

Hillary Clinton is the current Democratic front-runner for the Presidential nomination, and barring significant missteps, she will probably win. If that's true, she would face a formidable, perhaps insurmountable, foe in the general election.

That opponent would not be one of the lame GOP candidates who differ from one another only in the degree of their general scariness and retrograde policies; rather, the opponent would be her own well-documented, significant negatives with the general electorate. Given that, is there a coordinated move afoot by the GOP to push along the idea of Hillary as inevitable nominee - so they do indeed have a shot at retaining the White House in 2008?

Who are the 26%?

Given the events of the last 6 and a half years, it fascinates me that any single individual could be asked this question:

"Do you approve of the job George W. Bush is doing as President?

and answer in the affirmative.

According to the latest Newsweek poll, 26% - astonishingly - replied with a "yes" to that question. I want to know exactly who would be so disposed.

So let me pose the question in the immortal words of a Mr. J. Seinfeld: Who are these people?

First Will, Now Krauthammer

CAN Obama win without Clinton's "base"?

Cheney off to grovel

No congrats from Hillary

Rev up the shredder

Is Hillary being set up?

Who ARE these people?
