The stunning magnitude of Hillary Clinton's embarrassing loss to a relative rookie, paired with her husband's bizarre and often sulfuric campaign rhetoric, have left both Democratic megastars somewhat smaller than life - even if Hillary Clinton ends up on the ticket with Barack Obama.
Did anyone emerge from this campaign slog unscathed? Do we regard any of the candidates with even the modicum of respect as before?Or consider
this line:
Although they each have some virtues, Obama and McCain are far from the best that America can do.No, in an age of mediocrities, they
are the best that America can do.
