Senator Honorable Loses Another Friend

Here's a very good column from Richard Cohen.

Update: Sarah Palin loses a potential friend. A very good column from David Brooks.

And furthermore: The New York Times editorial board no longer eschews the L-word. (or the M-word, for mentiras, en espanol).

So the question for today: Are there actual limits to impropriety in politics, imposed by the marketplace of democracy? Is McCain about to pay a price for his irrational exuberance? I'll try to answer it in my print column this week.
