Here's a (satirical) memo sent to George W. Bush from his advisors, right after John McCain beat him in the New Hampshire primary:
What did McCain do that we didn't do? The obvious answer is: He campaigned vigorously and honestly and openly, and told people what he believed. It was a brilliant maneuver on his part and we are kicking ourselves for not having thought of it first.... We have prepared a packet of three-by-five cards containing spontaneous comments that you may want to make.Here's Achenbach on the Democratic candidate: "Al Gore, despite all appearances, is actually a human being. He's super nice. He does normal-person things all the time. He's only weirdly stiff, mannered, and mechanical on the exterior. You'd really like him if you were to spend twenty or twenty-five years getting to know him."
Some of the jokes fail, but most of the time they're right on target--and in any event, it's usually only another sentence or two before the next punchline. Readers who laugh at the humor of Dave Barry will also enjoy Achenbach, especially if they don't take their politics too seriously. --John J. Miller
