I wonder how many people, upon listening to John McCain and Sarah Palin desperately telling us of their non-solutions to the economic crisis facing the country today,  recalled the theme from All in the Family – particularly the lines:

It would be short, sweet, and get the message across in an unmistakable way. Even Republicans could not fail to get the message.
