My Billmon's back and there's gonna be trouble...

By Libby Spencer

Billmon is back. He doesn't have his own blog anymore but at the GOS, he posts a long diary that reminds me why I loved him so much. Here's the theme:

But anyone who’s studied McCain’s career with any intellectual detachment at all (as opposed to the hagiographic tendencies of his media cheerleading claque) could have told you: The truth about John McCain is that he'll do just about anything and say just about anything to win. He always has. He's just been more clever (and cynical) than most in how he goes about it.

If you read nothing else today, read the rest of this one for yourself.
