Cockburn on John McCain

I must say, I had to chuckle at the introduction to Alexander Cockburn's editorial about John McCain:

Until last week John McCain's political handlers had been complacently sketching out their basic strategy: to portray Obama as a mere novice in statecraft, devoid of those powers of mature wisdom and sober judgment with which the seasoned McCain is so richly endowed.

The problem here for McCain is that he's a dunderhead in statecraft, devoid of self control, capricious in moral standards and an imbecile in his lack of political judgment.

Yeah, except for that, McCain's the One!
