From the Boston Phoenix, no less:
Some pundits have praised McCain’s fighter-pilot mentality in this campaign: the way he shifts and turns on a dime. Yet those qualities aren’t necessarily what the electorate is looking for in a president. To use another well-worn metaphor, voters want their ship of state to sail smoothly, without incident, so they can go about living their lives and pretty much ignoring their government.
After eight years of this shit, Lord, is that ever true!
