Webb not endearing himself to liberals

Jen notwithstanding, the kiddie p0rn author isn’t giving warm fuzzies to everyone on the left.  Timothy Noah from Slate is one.  Richard Just from TNR (yes, I know…that TNR) is another.  Excerpts from Just:

I am amazed at how many Democrats have fallen for Jim Webb. Suddenly, everywhere you look, people are touting Webb as the perfect running mate for Barack Obama. In recent days, as Webb has seemed ubiquitous (hawking his book, bantering with Jon Stewart, grinning at Obama’s side), a disturbing number of my otherwise sane friends, family, and colleagues have told me that they view Webb as a perfectly acceptable choice–or, more disturbingly, a good one.

This madness has to stop. Now. Unless we want to end up with a vice president who harbors a worldview that is fundamentally illiberal, not to mention downright creepy. …

I’d say “disturbing” and “creepy” are more than good words for it.  Anywho, good reading nonetheless.
