This is only one of the passages from Gail Collins's column that made me laugh out loud this morning:
Remember how we used to joke about John McCain looking like an old guy yelling at kids to get off his lawn? It’s only in retrospect that we can see that the keep-off-the-grass period was the McCain campaign’s golden era. Now, he’s beginning to act like one of those movie characters who steals the wrong ring and turns into a troll.

During that last debate, while he was wandering around the stage, you almost expected to hear him start muttering: “We wants it. We needs it. Must have the precious.”
Credit where credit is due: apparently, Jon Stewart first made the comparison on the Daily Show.

Even before I saw the two photographs something deep down inside knew the truth of this! Mount Doom here we come.
