Even the Republican-leaning site, RCP, is showing some interesting

Yeah, like who would have thought Indiana and North Carolina were
"battleground" states? McCain hasn't been running a very good campaign,
but that return to Washington, campaign suspension, and debate flip-flop,
just didn't work well for him. I always new he had a temper, but I
didn't realize he was quite so impetuous.

He seems to have lost a step or two. I wonder how things might have been
different if Bush hadn't sandbagged him in South Carolina in 2000. I
thought a McCain/Bradley race would have been interesting then.

I've always thought McCain should have been the Republican candidate in
2000, and that he lost the nomination only because of the slimeball
political activities of the Bush campaign.

I agree that McCain has lost a step or two. In fact, he sometimes seems
a little confused, too.

Yesterday, I noted that the McCain campaign will start to get more and
more negative. I think we'll be seeing the negativity go into high gear
tonight with Ms. Palin's performance. She has to go negative big-time,
because she doesn't have anything else to offer. Ms. Palin will be a big
hit with the more simple-minded among the GOP base, but I don't think
she'll reach much beyond that base. I hope she gets a few really tough
questions on policy that demonstrate how little she knows.

Ms. Palin is a snarky little "debater," of course, but a good moderator
will force her to respond appropriately to the questions being asked.
