From Wolking's World:

When you get a 20-point swing in white women from Obama to McCain, thatÂ’s unprecedented. I donÂ’t think anybodyÂ’s seen that kind of movement that quickly in presidential politics in their lifetimes.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

[Thomas] Friedman, you’re a little bit late to the party here. Obama’s idiotic lipstick and dead fish comments were examples of Obama getting tough. That’s how he gets tough! This is how community agitators man up, folks. The real problem — and I say this to Tom Friedman and to all the others who are getting quaky in your boots. I mean, this clown that calls here right before the end of the hour, if that doesn’t illustrate liberals, I don’t know what does. Call here and say Sarah Palin can’t put two sentences together, when his own candidate can’t put a paragraph together without an "uh," and an "eh, you know, uhhh." Obama doesn’t have any ideas he can get tough on. See, this is the real problem.

How would he get tough on tax increases? How would he get tough on surrender in military conflict? How does one get tough about not drilling for oil? I mean, is he going to sit there and angrily pound his fist and say, “If you don’t properly inflate your tires, I’m going to lose it! Shut up about high gas prices and listen to me, quit your whining. Go out and buy a tire gauge and use it in an air pump or stick it where the sun don’t shine!” What’s he gonna do? How does he get mad about that and get tough about his issues? How do you get tough telling people how you’re going to screw ‘em? You hide the fact that you’re going to screw ‘em. Barack Obama does not have any ideas that Americans want, Barack Obama does not have any ideas that Americans need.

The guy is a one trick pony. He climbed into the arena of ideas with a speech from 2004 in one hand and in the other, a speech about him being The One weÂ’ve been waiting for. And now that heÂ’s punched out, his followers are stunned, thatÂ’s all their guy had. They have been passionately backing a man who has accomplished zilch, zero, nada. He hasnÂ’t accomplished anything. He has no life story he can tell. Well, he has a life story, but he wonÂ’t tell it.

It certainly is quite a meltdown. I'm on the verge of . . . schadenfreude.
