We all remember with affection the Guardian's sweetly naive attempt to encourage intelligent left-wing British people to educate stupid redneck Americans in Ohio about the evils of voting for George W Bush in 2004.
We also remember fondly, with a chuckle, the outcome: Bush's lead in Orange County increased. For some reason, Americans didn't take too kindly to being lectured by smarmy patronising limey liberal dickwads.
Happily, we report that the Guardian, in the insufferable guise of Jonathan Freedland, has not learned its lesson:
And anyway, do you think the average American will give a shit? They didn't last time, and the sulking, pet-lipped whinnying of bleating Euro-lefties like Jonathan Freedland is hardly going to change their minds.
One can only hope that in the event of a McCain win, Britain's leading lefty lecturers treat us to another masterpiece like this...

"The world's verdict will be harsh if the US rejects the man it yearns for"I doubt it'll mind too much, as Barack Obama is as over-rated as John McCain is over-rated - a few years of a McCain presidency (plus the chance to lust over Sarah Palin) will see us right.
