There’s an old adage in politics: if you are not on offense, you are on defense.

Today McCain put BO on defense — yet again — and at worst neutralized a difficult issue.

And, perhaps most importantly, he forced BO into a verbal blunder that will haunt him: if you need me, call me.

The debates were McCain's chance to really go on the offensive, because Obama does a lousy job of coming up with answers ("UUUHHHH" is not an answer).

this is definately a long pass down the sideline for a touchdown for McCain....not to belittle the importance of actually being presidential and statesmanlike, but this move by McCain is FANTASTIC!
