Almost daily Corner bashing

Lisa Schiffren:

If either McCain or Romney gets the nomination, as unfortunately seems likely, he must choose the single most conservative running mate he can find, who is sane and articulate. Or else Obama becomes President, with a lot of crossover GOP votes.

Kevin Drum criticizes the argument on the merits here. I'd just snark that even conservative brigadiers like Schiffren seem to understand that most of their fellow soldiers are neither sane nor articulate.
