The next logical progression rests in the “why” - why is someone, who is so broadly adored by the gatekeepers of world journalism, having trouble dispatching the once-maverick John McCain, who by all accounts, has waged a less-than-impressive campaign to this point? The underpinning truth of modern American liberal philosophy, that their existence is justified because the people are too stupid to take care of themselves, offers an answer that we will soon see, blaming the voters for not getting it.
