Samantha Power Resigns



The gorgeous, brilliant, internationalist-humanitarian Samantha Power has resigned from Senator Barack Obama's campaign because some unethical asshole of a Scottish reporter printed her off-the-record remarks about the Clinton campaign. Everything she said, by the way, was fairly about the Clintons. One isn't allowed to say those things out loud, though, in the thick of things. And, granted, Samantha Power's use of the word "monster" was over-the-top. But there is no question she went negative hard and fast. And Obama, essentially, didn't. And that's why he lost Ohio.

We, as Americans, are the lesser in her absence.
