Elvis in the Building!

Gail Collins Op-Eds on the Barack phenomenon vs. the Hillary candidacy today. Seems Barack followers are fainting like Elvis fans of yore, while Hillary reminds Collins of Pete Rose sans the gambling issues, or maybe not, considering that running for White House occupancy is always a gamble.

In the meantime, did you catch that Ohio right-wing radio host begging voters to elect a Democrat after McCain repudiated the guy's introductory remarks? Gail Collins says she's an Ohio girl and Ohio folks are plain talking, hard working types. But she fails to reflect on the KKK's longstanding foothold in the state. Check the state's history during the Civil War and during the 1920s when there were more Klan members there than in Mississippi and Alabama combined. And the next time you have occasion to travel through the state on I-70, make sure you stop off at a truck stop and listen to folks. You might think you are in one of those deep south states.
