One thing I have noticed is that this guy Schmidt is one hell of an advisor, way way better than Rove ever pretended to be. He knows how to fight back, and hit at the right vulnerabilities. He has been right on target with all he has done, and, given the shortcomings of his candidate, has done as well as can be imagined.

If this is McCain being McCain, it may be a blunder. But if it is undertaken with the agreement of Schmidt that this will not hurt the campaign, then I would trust that judgment.

Putting country before partisanship is NEVER a blunder, and that’s why McCain is going to win this thing.

Here we are facing the biggest economic crisis since 1929, and one candidate is taking it seriously and is heading back to Washington, the other is demanding the debates still take place.

Fauxbama is not in the position of having to defend not doing the job he’s already been elected for... Fauxbama either returns to washington, or loses the election by a blowout.
