Applesauce
Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don’t say you weren’t warned. By the way, this blog’s name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, “All politics is applesauce.” |

Last week, I told you HERE of certain evangelicals who are opposed to the idea of John McCain choosing Mitt Romney as his running mate.
And then there’s the likelihood that Democrats would attack Romney for having made millions of dollars downsizing companies he acquired as a private equity investor (see HERE).

Try this one on family or friends:
What one thing comes to mind when you ponder these words as a group?:
Black, white, brown, gray, strong, moody, chase, hunt, stone, field, woods, story, burger, brewer, frankfurter, butler and day.
To be fair about this, you should not turn to Google or any other Internet search engine. Register your guesses in the comments section, and I’ll acknowledge the first correct answer (which, of course, has to match the one thing that was on my mind when I put that list of words together).
This little quiz is just for entertainment purposes. No wagering, please.
UPDATE: After nearly 12 hours, nobody has even ventured a guess.
The answer is that all those words are surnames of former U.S. Supreme Court justices.

Jonathan Alter (whose mother, Joanne, was a casual acquaintance of mine in a campaign in which we both worked 38 years ago) has a GOOD COLUMN in Newsweek, lamenting the sad transformation of the John McCain he once knew and admired.
