A New Cap-and-Trade Proposal

by publius

This was simply too good to leave in the comments. In Hilzoy's post illustrating that McCain doesn't seem to know what cap-and-trade actually means, commenter Model 62 writes:

Maybe McCain's campaign should develop a cap-and-trade system for clarifying remarks. Advisers who shed more light on what McCain Actually Meant can sell their additional clarity to McCain advisers who can't reach the Campaign's Overall Targeted Lucidity Floor.

Good stuff.

By cleaning up the extra, erroneous "the" in the poster's original comment, you have earned a McCain Clearly Meant Credit.

That is a thing of beauty. Really. I think I'll bookmark it and read it every christmas.

I'm fine with this so long as we don't impose mandatory lucidity on the candidate.
