Brilliant.

The following link is dedicated to every dorkchop whose role as a campaign’s deputy assistant yard sign distributor magically becomes “political consultant” on their self-printed business cards.

“The World’s Worst New Media Resume” from gawker.com.

The riff on the exploitation of North Korean women is a moving component of your boss’ stump speech.

But it’s only a matter of time before the part where he utters the phrase “sexual bondage” shows up on “The Daily Show” and/or mixed and re-mixed on YouTube, probably with some not-so-wholesome visuals.

So find another way for him to say “sexual bondage” (hint: don’t google it, at least not from a government computer). It may be an awkward conversation to have with your boss, but it’s one you need to have. Right now.

Yesterday, I linked to a U.S. News & World Report article on Hillary Clinton, the highlight of which was an implied endorsement from Claire McCaskill, among others.

It turns out that the USN&WR reporter got it wrong, and the magazine updated the online version of the article immediately. The corrected version of the article is here.

McCaskill says she is not endorsing any candidate because she has to work with many of them. According to McCaskill spokeswoman Adrianne Marsh, “She would prefer that the candidates come to Missouri to win the hearts and minds of our voters.”

Meanwhile, I imagine that an enterprising reporter snooping around Saturday’s St. Louis County Lincoln Day dinner will find out which GOP presidential candidates are recruiting top talent and are about to set up shop in Missouri.
