Michael Tomlinson br> Habbaniyah, Iraq /p>W. James Antle III replies: True to form, Michael Tomlinson sees the name "Pat Buchanan" and loses all reading comprehension ability. Missing from his irrelevant review of Buchanan's latest book and his standard form letter about Blue Dog Democrats is something virtually every other letter writer seemed to understand: that my column was a defense of McCain's choice of Palin.
p> LEG TINGLES br> Re: David N. Bass's And Along Came Palin and Jay D. Homnick's The Others Palin in Comparison : /p>Yo editors! I have one slight addendum to the Bass and Hornick comments on Sarah Palin. Stop the presses! She needs an instantly new moniker! First, I take back everything I have ever said (or thought) about John McCain. He's not only a hero; he has impeccably good political sense. Second, here is Sarah's new moniker: PALADIN! I hereby charge all conservative commentators to take up the new banner. With Paladin, we CAN'T LOSE!
Paladin, Paladin, where do you roam? Feared by the bad, loved by the good--Paladin, Paladin!
p>Finally, the campaign gets interesting!
