Re: McCain's Maneuver

That was just smart politics in West Virginia. No sense in expecting the McCain supporters to go home and give Mitt the win when they didn't have to. I think it may have a buoyant effect in the South where voters with a Huck affinity might decide he's slightly more viable today than he looked yesterday.

I thought the McCain camp's whining about Mitt's Dole comment this morning (clumsy, but not malicious) was a tad overwrought and I think the Mitt camp's complaints about a "back-room deal" in West Virginia are equally silly.

And, via Allah, another whining link, just to keep things even. Mitt tells Huck to suck it up this morning.
