Is the McCain softening the last few days due to a fading bounce or the financial markets issues?

The economy. The markets were poised to take off this morning before I left for the office.

How about him softening by veering back left, and purposely bring back up amnesty?

I’d say yes, which is why I am not very optimistic.

IMHO, it's the financial panic.

Hong Kong made a pretty nice reversal last night -- from down 7.7% at the low but recovered and closed down only 0.03%. 7.4% stock market rallies are something you don't see every day.

He stopped hitting Obama with his own record, went back to his wishy-washy RINO act, and appears to be afraid of the financial problems so much that he is letting Obama blame the GOP without really defending himself.

I don’t know if this is by design or if they were totally thrown off by the bank situation.

The negative attacks by Obama on McCain about the economy are having some effect, and McCain has not been very good in his response.
