This Is Not Funny

Seriously, this is sick. None of us would be snickering if Obama was down in the polls:

Who was the highest paid individual in Senator John McCain’s presidential campaign during the first half of October as it headed down the homestretch?

Not Randy Scheunemann, Mr. McCain’s chief foreign policy adviser; not Nicolle Wallace, his senior communications staff member. It was Amy Strozzi, who was identified by the Washington Post this week as Gov. Sarah Palin’s traveling makeup artist, according to a new filing with the Federal Election Commission on Thursday night.

If ever there was a perfect indicator of the priorities of modern Republicanism, this is it.

(Actually, in a Strangelovian way, it’s also pretty funny.)
