You know, all those sober-minded Beltway Obamacons have me thinking. So far it's all been good race-baiting, lefty-smearing fun, but we've come to the point in the campaign where it is time to mull things over and make a serious decision. As Bill might put it, go ahead, fall in lust for ...

The Sundries Shack —
... Jules Crittendenis going all-in for Obama . His reasons sound a lot better than the other pusillanimous Republicans (Parker, Will, Adelman, Noonanm, et. al.) who have gone over to the Chosen One.
