Brian McGrory is a picayune pundit. But that doesn't change the fact that his current offering is a good example of why so many of these pundits are so unbearable. They're so disrespectful and rude.
Now, there are some people who are deserving of disrespect--liars and cheaters and war-mongerers come to mind. But an up-front fellow who offers to take on one of the most unpleasant jobs in the world?
What call is there to denigrate him with terms such as "unhinged" and write him off before a single vote has actually been cast. (Remember that Iowa was only choosing how many delegates , and for whom, they would be sending to the Democratic National Convention).
What call is there to refer to a two-term Vice President of the United States as a "has-been'?
