Pillars??

Weigel, who has been stellar this week, addresses the fooferaw over Obama accepting the nomination in front of Greek columns:

I have to wonder which campaign Obama is watching: the one where he's as popular as he was in early 2008, or the one where Republicans are taunting him like a caged animal for stuff-just-like-this, and where his lead isn't just gone in the (mostly meaningless) national polls but fading in the (meaningful as all hell) state polls.

Or as Dave more accurately puts it: Jesus Tapdancing Christ. I know the Democrats enjoy just handing elections to Republicans on a platter. But please, could you be a little less obvious about it?

Excerpt: He's going to accept the nomination in front of fake greek columns? Oy! Bad imagery. Bad, bad imagery. Are they determined to lose this thing? Sullivan picked it up and has more here.
