Bill Cunningham. . .

. . .is certainly no stranger to idiocy. It apparently spills over into his sports analysis as much as his politics.

There's no shortage of legitimate ways to mock Obama. Schoolyard taunts aren't one of them. And, if he wants to support Hillary because John McCain is rightfully embarrassed by his childish behavior, it's just more evidence on the pile that the man is given to childish behavior.

What's so depressing about it is the number of conservatives who have decided to take umbrage at Cunningham's being "thrown under the bus." Bill Cunningham has every right to be an unmitigated dullard. But that doesn't trump John McCain's duty to disassociate himself from that kind of stupidity.
