Malc in the Burgh: John McCain at the Al Smith dinner

The Al Smith dinner allows the candidates a wee laugh a few weeks out from the election. Some good comedy material here.

Nice words

"Cracking good read." Scottish Unionist

"Malc is an expert on Scottish nationalism. [He] knows what he's talking about - the thinking man's SNP voter." politics.co.uk

"A veritable all rounder with a strong mix of politics, humour, sport and always something different coming out from his now look website. Distinctly, commendably and refreshingly non-partisan." SNP Tactical Voting

"Malc [has] got gradually Greener as time has passed, the intrinsic merit of his writing, especially the posts backed up with real quality research." James at Two Doctors

"We can't do without your voice of reason!" Caron's Musings (I think that was somewhat in jest),

"When [he does] say something it's usually interesting and worth reading or debating." Ideas of Civilisation

"Nice to see some of his research work coming into his posts, and his blog also seems a bit more personal than last year, which only serves to enhance the quality." Holyrood Patter

"[Malc] isn't scared of the Tartan Tory tag to be fair, not that he'll thank me publicly for saying it." SNP Tactical Voting (He's wrong - I am scared of it).
