I feel his pain

MANIFESTO

Steve Benen a few hours ago:

It's one thing to point out some of the absurdities of the presidential campaign, but it's altogether more challenging to find different adjectives that sufficiently capture the madness emanating from McCain campaign headquarters. Reading today that McCain is going after Obama on tax breaks for Big Oil is just the latest evidence that the Republican presidential ticket is engaged in some kind of satirical performance art, and I'm just not in on the joke.

I know the feeling: I said six weeks ago that I had nothing more to write about the campaigns.
