Even George Will Gets It

Sheila Suess Kennedy | 06/17/2008 - 14:50

I generally don't find myself in agreement with George Will about much, but this morning, he weighed in on the John McCain response to the habeas corpus ruling, and it got it absolutely right.

We're not in new territory, here. When this country came into being, there had been open rebellion with Brittain, the territories were deeply divided over the issue of chattel slavery, the First Peoples, well you get the drift. It was tough going and still the Framers recognized the terrible power of the State to put people in prison and placed protections in the Constitution.

Poll
Will the Choice of Biden and not Bayh Make it Harder for Obama to Win Indiana?
Yes. Evan Bayh would have energized Indiana Democrats and "tipped" the state.
0%
Maybe. But choosing Bayh would have made it much, much harder to win the election.
60%
No. Indiana voters know Bayh, and choosing him would have reflected poorly on Obama's judgment.
40%
Hard to say.
