Rather takes leave of this world.
Jonah Goldberg has a bit of fun detailing how Dan Rather has taken leave of his senses and is no longer tethered, even tenuously, to the facts of reality. He is like the boy in the bubble. He knows there is a world out there somewhere, but he is never really in touch with it. And so Dan blunders on in his quest to deny the undeniable and avoid what is unavoidable. Sooner or later the facts will come out and Dan will find himself in the same place that Nixon did, saying the same things and walking down the same dead-end road to failure, humiliation and exile. Dan's career is over; he just doesn't know it yet.
