William Kristol Loves Driving in the Ditch

Remember how, eight years ago, William Kristol admitted that George W. Bush had driven the nation into a ditch? He then backpedaled furiously, and argued that the guy who drove us into the ditch was the best guy to drive us out? And how, his having received his wish, we got an outcome that resembles the conclusion of Thelma and Louise?

Kristol has now assessed Barack Obama's performance as President:

If this election’s just about the last four years, that’s a muddy verdict. Bush was president during the financial meltdown. The Obama team has turned that around pretty well.

Kristol appears to find terrifying the prospect of reelecting a president who can actually drive.

Muddy, indeed.
