Line o' the day:

 
Jules Crittenden observes Thomas Sowell's hammering of all candidates -- especially Hillary Clinton, Mike Huckabee, and John McCain -- and tacks on a line o' the day.

...Among the Democrats, the choice between John Edwards and Barack Obama depends on whether you prefer glib demagoguery in its plain vanilla form or spiced with a little style and color.

The choice between both of them and Hillary Clinton depends on whether you prefer male or female demagoguery.

...Among the Republicans, there are misgivings about the track record of each of the candidates, especially those who have shown what Thorstein Veblen once called "a versatility of convictions."

No question, however, it will be a nose-holding election on the right and looks to be a hope-snorting one on the left.
