Yeah, it was interesting watching a right-wing friend try to come up with an explanation of how McCain hadn't sold out when he jumped on board the Bushwagon in '04.

I think in some way McCain has added to that passivity. Not only by his support of W in 2004, but also in begging for support from the very people whose views on race is anything but exemplary (i.e., Bob Jones).

Glenn Greenwald's got a great column up today about how the press has been talking about the McCain smear campaign, but has studiously avoided suggesting that *someone* (oh lord, who could it possibly be) was actually behind it. Everything is in the passive voice (i.e. “the voters of South Carolina let McCain be smeared”).
