Shatner speaks

All apparent contradictions are now resolved (via Kathryn Jean Lopez at The Corner).

So what candidates would your big characters be supporting in the upcoming election?

T.J. Hooker would support McCain, and so would Denny Crane, but he would think McCain was a left-winger. Captain Kirk wouldn’t recognize any of the three.

Also at The Corner, Victor Davis Hanson on the Democratic primaries and the collapse of the race, class, gender industry.

The only difference now is that RCG industry is no longer fancifully seen as united and synonymous in its struggle against rich, white Christian heterosexual male capitalists, but at each other’s throat—and so the Democrats have had by needs to deconstruct them into pecking-order categories of descending importance: race trumps all (Obama), then gender (Hillary), with class concerns lagging behind (white working class).
