John McCain’s choice for vice president created echoes of the past in my head. I couldn’t stop hearing Joe Biden paraphrasing Lloyd Bentsen, the 1988 Democratic vice presidential candidate, and saying to Sarah Who, “Governor, I have served with Hillary Clinton. I know Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton is a friend of mine. Governor, you’re no Hillary Clinton.”
