I’ve been away travelling in Asia this week, and the Chinese have this habit of blocking web access to sites like cnn.com and the Tribune.  So I missed most of the excitement about Jack Ryan’s crash and burn.

The American electorate is quite funny.  Dude, next time, tell us all about the sex clubs early, and on your own terms.  The Tribune has it right — “skeletons always come out”.  Why people with skeletons they don’t want out ever go into politics is beyond me.  And so you have a thing for exhibitionist sex.  No problem, man — some day your kid will understand.  In the meantime, sharing asmuch might even have garnered you more Gen X/Gen Y voters — certainly makes you more hip than a lot of your party’s candidates.
