More than "Country First".

Hearing from some that the Palin selection was brilliant. I thought it is the difference between a brilliant chess move and one in checkers. Of course I am the one here talking game moves, but here it is the LA times talking "political calculations"... NOT! Or rather that the McCain theme of "Country First" was not about "political calculations." That is the game.

But back to me calling it a game. It is always a case of who starts it, and who counters, but I have already hit on that "of course". Now this is more than just a bit of quipery. Life is really more than just a game and sometimes it is not much less than politics. Obama has made the just calculation, while some have said McCain made the impulsive selection. But there I go again. Who started the use of "some"? Ouch, that was a double entendre that hit on course. Of course it is the political choice. But to some, politics is not much less than war.
