McCain's Train Wreck : Give the credit to Barack Obama
Advertisements [?]As McCain's pivot last week left pundits dumfounded, not knowing what to make of it all, I realized, we've seen this movie before.
Obama's campaign drove Team Hillary to distraction. I won't forget the completely senseless gaffes, and the new slogan every week, particularly "which Hillary will we see today"?
However dysfunctional Clinton's back office was (and it certainly was), they were seasoned operatives. Every which way they looked , the Obama campaign had them cornered, sometimes days, weeks, and months in advance.
As McCain implodes, we see only the tip of the iceberg: The panic, the desperation to find some way out. I doubt David Axelrod thought McCain would try a Hail Mary, Joseph and Little Baby Jesus pass but there is. And onward strolls No Drama Obama. We must be seeing the best political campaign of modern times.

Denial is the first classic reaction to tragedy.
Lamprey is just ahead of the curve.

Panic and desperation? From McCain? :hammer:

McCain is UP 47-45 AFTER the messiah gave his Steal-from-the-Mount speech and BEFORE John McCain and Sarah Palin have given their formal Convention Speeches.
Yeah -- disarray.

They're all saying McCain is down in the polls as if he were down by 15 points, and that the Palin choice was a train wreck.
Must not be too terrible. McCain raised $10 million since announcing her as his VP and 20,000 people showed up to see them speak, without the benefit of a free rock concert or booze.
