A few thoughts post-convention.

Garry Trudeau, you were way off base this week. Yes, I know that strips are made several days in advance, but you really blew it this week. The Clinton jokes just fell flat with the way things went at the convention.

I was lucky enough to be on break when Hillary asked for the nomination of Obama by acclamation. I was amazed to see it happen. Between that, her speech, Bill's speech, and Obama's acceptance, there should be no doubt as to where people's loyalties lie: Anyone who claims to be a "Clinton voter for McCain" is one of McCain's trolls, period. There are no PUMAs. There are only McCain's disunity operatives.

Good on McCain for waiting to announce his VP today. That's a very respectful decision.
