Quote:Certainly too liberal to be nominated...
And THERE we have it.
Oliphant, several weeks ago in the Boston Globe, wrote a column doing everything he could to convince McCain to run as Kerry's vice. The notion wasn't about electoral advantage, but rather about advantages post-election. Oliphant is a very smart fellow, and he's as disconcerted by the level of partisanship that exists as are so many of us. He made put forward a really compelling vision of how that teamup could work to connect the two sides, and actually work towards something other than selfish and partisan ends. It brings a big sigh because it looks so very improbable. But merely that someone thought it is somehow cheering.
