"The One Can't Handle The Jokes"

By The Daily Dish

Some debate advice for McCain from John Pitney at NRO:

What demeanor should McCain display tonight? Angry doesn't work. Solemn doesn't work.  Fake-smiley doesn't work. Instead, McCain should go back to his roots and unleash his inner smart-aleck. If Obama accuses him of being erratic in a crisis, he should say: "So I'm erotic in a crisis? Who knew?"

The Corner begins to resemble the GOP writ small: reduced to cranks, kooks, weirdoes and unknowing teenagers.
