Humorless Desperation?

Ben Smith over at politico has penned a piece (of something) about John McCain’s history of joke making. He condemns the man for having a sense of humor, something more politicians need. Are McCain’s jokes that horrible? Nah, tasteless at time, funny at others but not horrible. So why this desperation? Does Mr. Smith fear a McCain presidency so much that he lambastes the man for telling a joke of two? I dunno. So why, oh why is Mr. Smith so rattled by humor? Has Ben ever made a funny? If not he should start, it is therapeutic. Otherwise his “reporting” career may yet prove to be his only joke!
