Peggy Noonan Hates Republicans, Hearts Obama

Even more bad news for Republicans and John McCain today, courtesy of Reagan Revolutionary Peggy Noonan:  Everybody loves Obama and hates the GOP, the end. Ha, not really. Peggy has awhole column to write, so she needs to explain exactly how badly the Republican Party will be stomped by the Democrats in November, even in slave states like Mississippi, where only Trent Lott's family can legally vote. Let's see what kind of weird new words and phrases Peggy makes up this week, after the jump.

• "The Republicans? Busy dying. The brightest of them see no immediate light. They're frozen, not like a deer in the headlights but a deer in the darkness, his ears stiff at the sound. Crunch. Twig. Hunting party ."

• "And they speak that language because they are marketers, not thinkers. Not serious about policy. Not serious about ideas. And not serious about leadership, only followership."

• "They have scandals, bad personalities, don't stand for anything. That's why Republicans are losing: because they're losers."

• "Late at night they toss and turn in the antique mahogany sleigh bed in the carpeted house in McLean and try to remember what it is they really do think, and what those thoughts imply. to make a difference and wound up with their butts in the butter."
  

That's right, Peggy's so old that she thinks "carpeted house" is a biting description of The Lives of the Rich, with their top hats and monocles.
