"My guess is that even if the country clubbers come up with the money for such a thing, it will be denounced by the McCain campaign."

I go back and forth about whether I think McCain’s got a snowball’s chance in hell or not. Under normal circumstances, the answer would have to be not, but the Dems have a mess on their hands, and, for the first time in history a non-white or non-male candidate, which is going to have an effect in ways nobody can foresee. So sometimes I think there’s no way he’ll win, and other times I think he’s a shoe-in. If he does win, it won’t be because of him or his campaign, it will be because the hapless Dems were so completely inept that they handed him the Presidency.
