So there’s a bit in my head that’s echoing around, to the rough sounds of the Antony funeral speech in Julius Caesar, that goes something like this:

“But McCain is against abortion
And McCain is an honorable man…”

Maybe if I find Copious Free Time, I’ll write the whole thing out.

Also — is ‘My Fellow Americans’ an acceptable substitute for ‘Friends, Romans, Countrymen”? Discuss amongst yourself…

Actually, McCain says "My friends" a lot when talking to a crowd.

True. But then again, if we're casting McCain in the Brutus role, he's not the one speaking. :)

Besides, thankfully, John McCain is not Bob Dole. :)

Given how confused he's seemed at times lately, he could well be doing both.

"Et ego, me?"
