Bob Novak on John McCain

Deal Hudson

Just three weeks ago Bob Novak told me that John McCain had "kicked the elephant one too many times." In his column this morning, Novak predicts McCain may be the "last man standing" in the GOP presidential race.

The real wildcard in this present calculus is the sudden popularity of Mike Huckabee.  If you saw him in his orange hunting outfit yesterday you realize in how many ways he's not ready for prime time. 

When I saw that orange hunting cap pulled down tight over his eyebrows, my first thought was Elmer Fudd.

Speaking of cartoons, I was delighted yesterday when I went to see the sequel to "National Treasure" that Looney Tunes is still sending its product to the big screen.  This new Daffy Duck was a brilliant send-up of our addiction to home theater. 

It felt good to have a hearty laugh at my own expense.
