#rsrh QotD, Smile at the Thought edition.

From this New York Times article (via RCP) on how Democrats are doing everything humanly (and a few things inhumanly) possible in their campaign ads to avoid mentioning the ‘D’ after their names:

With early voting beginning in several states in a few weeks and with Election Day less than two months away, some of the most vulnerable Democratic candidates have turned to another approach: pleading for a second chance.

“I’ve made my share of mistakes, but they were honest mistakes, and I’ve listened to your concerns and I’ve grown on the job,” said Gov. Chet Culver of Iowa, wearing a solemn expression that gives way to a slight smile. “I hope you give us the chance.”

HAHAHAHAHA no.
