Anyone who is begging Ms. Walsh and other pundits to leave this alone needs to GET AN F'ING CLUE.
If you want to wait until the general election, fine, but when the time does come, there is one and only one priority: Making sure that Rudy Giuliani (or Mitt Romney, or John McCain, or Fred Thompson) does not become president. Whether this requires some mucking around in the slime, I don't care - there are important things at stake, things that are more important than taking the high road, a.k.a. the loser's road.
We've seen the damage a bad president can do. It can mean hundreds of thousands dead. We cannot let this happen again. If that means making an issue out of Rudy's marriages, or Mitt Romney's magic underwear, or Cindy McCain's drug problems, or Fred Thompson's shotgun marriage at age 17, or whatever, SO BE IT.
