What Pushes This From Perfect To 'Too-Perfect-God-Is-Writing-Lazy-Again' is the Surname

Stealing this (brief) post in its entirety from Charles P. Pierce at Esquire:

From a New York Times interview with Barry Commoner, who ran for president in 1980 on the Citizens Party ticket.

"The peak of the campaign happened in Albuquerque, where a local reporter said to me, 'Dr. Commoner, are you a serious candidate or are you just running on the issues?'"

That about sums it up, don't it?
