Reading JPuzzleWhiz’s comment 6 years on is hilarious. I hope he was just lampooning that archetype. In the end, the Right got what it wanted: a stymied government incapable of doing much of anything. I wish I could peek into the McCain presidency alternate history. If the Right could have put their name on it, universal health care might have actually been brought out in a real way. Probably not, though. Having Obama as president probably just saved us from a few right wing shenanigans (but not all of them).
Merry Christmachrist!
