From the looks of things, De Void’s probably gonna sound like a broken record for the next six months, so you’ll need to take me off your RSS feed. Oh. Wait. I’m not on anyone’s RSS list anyway. Well then. Without further ado:

CBS’ venerable & avuncular Wise Man Emeritus Bob Schieffer really went for broke Tuesday night before the Indiana primary results rolled in. The broadcaster who’s seen and covered so much history he might also be called Mr. Beltway Media Establishment was marveling over the unprecedented low-brow tenor of the presidential campaign. No sir, he’d never seen anything like it. Never ever. He cited half a dozen examples of shocking candidate utterances, and lapses of gentility and proportion.

“I keep hearing this campaign may be the worst ever, an all-time low,” he offered with a bemused hint of a smile. “I don’t know about that. But I know we’re at the deep end of the pool.”

Schieffer’s Captain Obvious shtick made me want to lunge through the TV set, take him by the shoulders and throttle him a few times. “Bob,” I’d say. “Listen to me. Do you even know where the deep end of the pool is?” Then I’d take a-hold of his ears and pull him even closer and say “What about Hillary Clinton’s UFOs? Have you ever heard a presidential candidate talk about declassifying UFO records and letting taxpayers actually know what they’re paying for? When’s the last time that happened? Why don’t you tell your viewers something CBS has never told them before?”
