CNN reports that Sen. John McCain (R-Crazyland) had this to say: “I’m not going to talk about my campaign anymore. I’m finished with talking about it. I’ve talked about it for two weeks. I will not discuss it or any aspect of it. Thank you.”
It is possible that War Candidate McCain is simply tired. Pulling all-nighters will have that effect on a man his age. But let’s face the facts: McCain’s campaign is coming apart. His staff are fleeing, his fundraising sucks, and now, finally, he has done the one thing no candidate can ever do–he’s told the media he doesn’t want to talk to them.
The last man to be elected President without mounting a campaign was Abraham Lincoln. Mr. McCain, you are no Abraham Lincoln, and if you don’t have something incredible to report in the next month, we will simply stop talking about you. And you, sir, will lose.
