The imagery gave me my best laugh of the day. :-) “Rainier’s advisor was a priest named Father Tucker, and it turns out that the McCain-Palin union was brokered by a less spiritual team led by William Kristol and Dick Morris.”

In this week's op-ed he bashed Peggy Noonan, and by extension the rest of the "media elite" (of which, ironically, he is one) for suggesting that "In the end the Palin candidacy is a symptom and expression of a new vulgarization in American politics." The week before he admonished the McCain campaign for not freeing her to do pressers. "Free Sarah Palin", he said. Now I understand why.<br><br>As for Morris, well, as far as I can tell he has no scruples at all. So the fact that he was instrumental in picking Palin isn't likely to stop him from bashing her eventually. lol! Well, now I understand why Kristol bashes everyone but Palin.

So, if the Republicans lose in a blow-out on Nov 4th, will the candidates in 2012 pick Morris and Kristol as advisors???</blockquotes>
The Democrats would never be that lucky.

Clinton recovered his popularity with the American people only after ditching Morris (who told him to keep mum about the relationship with an intern named Monica) and hiring the more even-handed David Gergen. Since being fired, Morris has been a steady fixture on Fox- delighting conservatives with his constant Clinton-bashing.

Kristol was one of the original neocons who pushed us into our long bruising battle in Iraq–which will go down as a historic foreign policy blunder. He pushed McCain towards Palin, then blasted the competence of McCain's campaign in the media.

Why would any reasonable person let either of these two decide maybe the most important decision a presidential candidate has to make?
