Candidates seem to feel such a great need to express love for other races and religions — that fervent desire to be smiled at or noticed that is so repulsive in high school kids and candidates alike.  I suppose back in middle school, when you might carry gum around just so that people could ask you for a piece, it didn’t grate as much.  Hearing Lieberman or Clark send glowing regards to all celebrating Ramadan only makes me feel…cheated of real conversation.  Even if sometimes I dearly hope they mean what their speechwriters have them say.
