Given my feelings about McCain, and from what I have seen in the change in Republican party behavior over the last 9 days, I think someone was listening to that phone call and this is a painfully truthful rendition of what happened.
People were saying his speechwriters did lots of ghosting on her speech, but I see lots of her ideas in his speech too. She drove a hard bargain.
Anyway, anytime McCain gets in trouble over the next four years, my advice is going to be "Talk to the lady."
On edit, they have a link to Lisa Nova doing Hillary doing Sunset Blvd. That is rich and funny. Lisa Nova is going to have a huge career with this kind of thing.
4 years from now McCain will be 76. And Linda Lingle will be term limited. Palin and Lingle could each move up a notch. I won't cry if they do.
