Quick edit: RIP Paul Newman
Two moons have turned since I last posted here and, in an effort to stop this blog becoming the Krog and Rel show, I have decided to cast away my lack of enthusiasm and write something. During my time away there have been a great many things in the news and elsewhere upon which I have had thoughts that may have been considered werthy for posting. Some even got as far as being first-drafted in my head before I just got too tired or distracted to post and they drifted out of the headlines or public interest. I have a lot to say about Sarah Palin, for example. Or French writers. Or the untold delights of my new Sunday hobby of drinking wine and reading the paper all day.

Zogby Says Country Will Go for ‘Comfortable Old Shoe’
Zogby said he thinks the race will turn in the last weekend before Election Day and though the popular vote will be tight, the successful candidate will win in a landslide.
He likened this year’s election to the contest in 1980, when Ronald Reagan defeated President Jimmy Carter.
“This may be and probably is the most important election in our lifetime,” Zogby said. “I don’t say that lightly.”
Despite two books by Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama, Americans still don’t know enough about him. And if they don’t think they know him well enough by the time they vote, they’ll go with the “comfortable old shoe,” Republican Sen. John McCain, Zogby said.

Let’s hold up old shoes at McCain rallies, ok? No?
This ad of Obama’s from the primary season does a great job in illustrating why we cannot afford an Obama presidency. They won’t do it, but maybe McCain’s campaign should be re-running this ad:
