McCain stumbles

It won't be the last time. The blogosphere is buzzing with McCain taking credit for a bill he opposed. Read Steve Benen here.

McCain shoots from the hip. When he's the media darling and their's a dozen other candidates, that's fine. But I've always said, when the spotlight is on himn (and now it is finally on him), he'll wilt.

He could get away with this kind of thing before, but not now. The long harsh primary was exactly what Obama needed to get ready for this intense general election. You have to watch every word, every gesture under incredible pressure. I just don't see McCain being as up for it. He's used to running the show, saying what he wants.
