Of course, when you have somebody like Cokie Roberts handing you softballs like this, you almost gotta swing at 'em:
COKIE ROBERTS: I don't think that it's good for the Democratic Party to have two liberal Senators from states that are going to go Democratic anyway. I mean, he needs a Bible-thumping, gun-owning, white guy from a swing state. I mean, maybe that's who the party should have nominated.
SAM DONALDSON: You mean, in other words, somebody who disagrees with him on all the issues.
Thanks to Constant Reader Jaded.
You said it, Sam. For that matter, and oddly enough: you too, Cokie.
