‘Kraut-hammer.’ Very droll, Newsweek.

[UPDATE]: Welcome, Instapundit readers.

Newsweek’s Jonathan Alter, in the process of telling the Democrats that they need to damn the torpedoes and go full speed ahead, drops this gem:

Charles Kraut-hammer doesn’t represent any swing voters.

Not having the print edition of Newsweek handy – like pretty much the rest of America – I don’t know if this is reproduced there. But I’m curious: is the ethnic sneer there Alter’s, or his editor’s?  I suspect it’s the latter, actually, but you never know.

PS:  What?  No, actually, the Democrats should totally listen to Alter.  Really.  Please.
