The Cranky Backlash
ByDavid Frum was nothing compared to James Wolcott:
I have nothing against Obama--I've donated money to his campaign, as I have Hillary's--I'll vote for any Democrat over any Republican--but as obnoxious as is the chortling, crowing misogyny of a Chris Matthews or the rightwing buffoon (Michael Graham, I believe) Imus had on his show this morning (or Imus himself, for that matter), the rah-rah gaga Beatlemania oozing out of the Huffington Post over Obama is even more revolting. Watching middle-aged men reclaim their innocence and idealism is like having to retrace Kevin Costner's steps through a field of dreams all over again--it was corny enough the first time.
One thing we won't ever have to worry about: James Wolcott reclaiming his innocence.
