The politics of the hidden upper cut, the surprise move, the high risk gambit, the unblinking fabrication, the bait and switch — in other words the erratic sturm and drang of McCain’s campaign is angering even the most passive of citizens. We have seen this one trick pony before: a personality that thrives upon, and indeed deeply needs, the crisis of the day, in order to act out who they are. It is a temperament that craves self-centered drama. And if there happens to be none,  then some must be created as in the Palin disaster.  Now McCain’s brilliant strategy to deal with a real financial crisis is, of course, to first charge in with the imperious ‘off with their heads’ Stalinist solution — an immense public pandering and a major distraction to say the least. But wait! He’s not the President. Ok minor problem. Then, ahhh, to hell with the debates, McCain’s got to rescue America right now. I mean RIGHT NOW. Today. Oh, maybe it will take the weekend. Anyway once he’s dealt with those bastards then he can get back pussyfooting with Obama.

Please. Someone save us from this man.
