The great thing about being a blogger on Monday is that when you find someone who says exactly what you feel, you don't have to bother trying to improve on it. You just accept it with gratitude. Here's Jay Nordlinger in this morning's NRO:

Oprah has given Obama a powerful boost, and that provoked a memory. In September 2000, Governor Bush was trailing Vice President Gore, pretty significantly. A prominent political analyst declared Bush “toast.” And then Bush went on Oprah and Regis — had very good appearances. And his numbers rose. The Oprah appearance, in particular, was thought to be a real boost.

A second prominent political analyst, in a private remark, said, “What a stupid country.” I’ve never forgotten that.
