McCain's very bad week

The political week draws toward the end, and it has been a very bad one for John McCain.

To cap it off here on Friday (and it's not over yet) are two items:

1. FoxNews has sent a cease and desist letter to the McCain campaign, demanding that it remove an ad that includes the voice of one of its reporters.

2. The Wall Street Journal called McCain's remarks about SEC Chairman Christopher Cox not only false but "un-presidential." And it added that, in a time of crisis, the people want a "calm and steady leader" -- clearly implying that McCain isn't.

And these are supposed to be his friends !!!!!

Not to mention that he seemed to confuse Spain with a Latin American country and didn't recognize their president's name; that Palin was caught in another lie, about when she actually asked her teenage daughters (including the pregnant one) to "vote" on whether she should accept the VP slot.

And to ice the cake: the tracking polls have flipped back to an Obama majority.

And if you want to allow yourself to drift into a conspiratorial frame of mind. Consider this...

A public records lawsuit has been filed to release Palin's Yahoo! e-mail trail, which is thought to contain multiple e-mails pertinent to the Troopergate investigation into whether she abused her power as governor.

But...but because her email was hacked into, Palin deleted those accounts - perfectly reasonable if someone hacked into your email. Unless you 'hacked' into it yourself, then blamed it on someone else, so you would have an excuse for deleting all evidence that you had broken the law in this Troopergate mess.
