The GOP ad John McCain doesn’t want you to see, Part II.

Arrrrggggh.

“I want it to be a landslide.”

Last night, I blogged about Hillary talkin’ like a homegirl at Al Sharpton’s demagogue-a-thon.
More at HA, where see-dubya quips:
MEMO TO HILLARY: When your name is “Clinton”, and you attack the ethics of the Bush administration…
DO NOT MENTION THE OVAL OFFICE CARPET.
Er, yeah.

Ronald Reagan, CPAC speech, February 2, 1982:
We must ask ourselves tonight how we can forge and wield a popular majority from one end of this country to the other, a majority united on basic, positive goals with a platform broad enough and deep enough to endure long into the future, far beyond the lifespan of [...]

Howard Dean.
As Robert Spencer noted last week:

Sen. Mel Martinez, who will become the new general chairman of the Republican Party after it lost control of Congress, said on Tuesday he would not be an “attack dog” in the 2008 White House race.

Well, isn’t this rich? Howard Dean is scolding the Maryland state Democratic Party for being too..white:
Saying Maryland Democratic leaders must do more to encourage black candidates so “we do not have another Michael Steele problem,” Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean on Thursday criticized the state party’s lack of diversity on its recent winning tickets.

Howard Dean was on ‘Meet the Press’ (transcript here) over the weekend and referred to Saddam Hussein as “a pain in the neck”.
A “pain in the neck” is what parents call their kids when they won’t stop whining for ice cream, what you call your boss when he gives you work at 5pm [...]

The NY Sun reports this morning that Kofi Annan’s smear against Israel is threatening to “unravel:”
An apparent discrepancy in the portrayal of events surrounding the deaths of four unarmed U.N. observers in Lebanon threatens to unravel Secretary-General Annan’s initial accusation that Israel “deliberately” targeted the U.N. Interim Force in Lebanon.
A Canadian U.N. observer, one of [...]

Code Pink, the radical anti-war guerilla group that has hounded wounded troops outside Walter Reed Army Hospital, won’t be monopolizing its street corner for quite some time. Seems they forgot to renew their permit.
Oops.
The permit now belongs to the DC chapter of Protest Warrior.

Many security experts believe that the success of U.S. troops in Iraq and Afghanistan is vital to our security here at home. Not Sen. John Kerry. Here’s what he said to George Stephanopoulos on This Week earlier today:
Yes, we have not been attacked here. Many people surmise that one of the reasons we haven’t been [...]

A.M. Mora y Leon at Publius Pundit catches anti-war extremists Code Pink perverting a photo of brave women in Iran protesting the nation’s Islamic leadership before the presidential elections last summer, which the moonbats altered for use on a Code Pink banner to recruit terrorist-enabling women activists.

Read John Noonan at The Officers’ Club:
I’m a troop and I don’t need Code Pink telling me that patriotism “confuses me.” Code Pink does not support the military or speak for the military. They are a reactionary anti-American organization, and should be treated as such.
Amen.

On a related note, Smash documents the counter-protest against Code Pink in San Diego.

Within the conservative movement, is there a growing sense of malaise? Or is it merely something the other side desperately wants us to feel?
After relentless recent liberal media poundings, I’ve noticed at least a few on the right seeming a bit down-in-the-dumps.
Why I’m instead upbeat:
1) Republican fundraising is clobbering parallel opposition efforts. Howard Dean isn’t [...]
