GOODY TWO SHOES: The Nation’s Bungle In The Jungle


OpinionJournal’s James Taranto notes (sixth item) this curious post by Adam Howard, a blogger for liberal rag The Nation, and wonders, "What do these three distinguished politicians have to do with the ‘jungle’"?

Has the Republican Party suddenly caught a case of jungle fever? This year Republicans will most likely run three African-Americans in statewide elections: Kenneth Blackwell (for governor in Ohio), former NFL star Lynn Swann (for governor in Pennsylvania) and Maryland Lieutenant Governor Michael Steele, who is seen as the frontrunner for the Republican Senate nomination there.

The Stiletto is relieved that Howard’s racist reference stopped short of referring to any of the three as a "macaca."
