Rising Hegemon
John McCain, Rudy Giuliani and Arnold Schwarzenegger are the big stars of the first two days of the Republican convention, but they didn't get their prime-time slots because they're moderates. If the Republican Party had wanted to play up the moderate angle, they'd have put together the same sort of multihued and gender-balanced schmaltzfest they did in 2000. McCain, Giuliani and Schwarzenegger are speaking because they are brave.
Oh criminy.
McCain I'll give you. Giuliani at least acted quickly on 9/11 rather than continue to read about a girl and her ungulate. Schwarzenegger? Um, David, I hate to break it to you but that is only in the movies.
Bobo doesn't even have the courage to not write about White House Talking Points.
