IN WHICH I BRIEFLY SUCCUMB TO DOWDISM. I try to remain focused on substance here, but I am also puzzled about why someone running for president would analogize themselves to an (albeit fictional) mob family. And, of course, Cox is correct that the punchline is even more horrific; embodying a mass murder and his enabler is one thing, but choosing a song by History's Greatest Monster is well beyond the pale of human decency. I'm afraid I'm going to have to, er, continue to not support her primary campaign. (Via MY.) --Scott Lemieux
