Rich Cohen throws McCain WAYYYY under the bus

Then, he drives around the block a couple of times. Cohen first pleads “guilty” to long having been in the Schmuck Talk Express™ corner, but denies it was because of McCain’s easy access.

Instead, he says it was because of the truth and honor McCain claimed to represent, exemplified by his admitting he lied about his stance on the Confederate battle flag in South Carolina.

That said, it’s too bad Cohen couldn’t put the bus on autopilot and run over himself, too:

Sidebar: Rich, I’ve got news for you. Schmuck Talk knew the campaign was heading back north and that he needed to change his stance. In other words, he was flip-flopping and spinning at the same time. Perhaps we ought to rename him again as Slick Talk Express.

That said, Cohen’s got a GREAT kicker:

Karl Marx got one thing right -- what he said about history repeating itself. Once is tragedy, a second time is farce. John McCain is both.

And, re my observations about Schmuck Talk’s lying flip-flopping of non-virtue eight years ago…

Rich, hell hath no fury like a lover deceived, eh?
