The morning news shows reflect a similar inclination towards the sleepy. Gov. Richardson braves the No Dem Zone to go on Fox News Sunday and John McCain's travel buddy, Sen. Lindsay Graham will go on Face the Nation, armed with the talking points to try to convince us that McSame really does understand the "Islamic" threat, even if he doesn't understand the Islamic sects.
