For the cynics responding to my McCain post yesterday — and there were several of you — Andrew Sullivan channels the Politico‘s Jonathan Martin channeling a commenter at Martin’s blog, vetting your collective smirks.
That said, I think Martin hits the right balance, in the end: “I’m not sure that is how the RNC and McCain exactly wanted it to play out, but they’ll need to be careful if there is too much of the good cop/bad cop routine.”
Exactly. At some point, McCain needs to do more than scold the party. He needs to actually lead it.
