    The Crucible

    David Talbot would have made great reporter during the Salem witch trials, reporting for the prosecution of course. So articles like this are what pass for journalism at Salon. Truly sad!

    As I write this McCain is speaking at a town meeting challenging Obama to go around America with him and speak to the people. He even offered to even pay for the plane. He also asked his supporters to speak to their Democratic friends to urge Obama to accept this challenge. I doubt Obama has the testicles.
