Petition Smackdown: Shaming John McCain Into Facing His Doom

178,000 people signed that petition, and hey, it worked. Although, given the way the debate turned out, going pretty much was McCain’s doom. Maybe he should have chickened out entirely rather than endure his self-inflicted thrashing. The more I look at it, the more I think McCain mostly destroyed himself. Obama gave him some assists, looked presidential, and let McCain make the case that he was cranky, old, irritable and just a downright unpleasant old coot you wouldn’t want running the local corner store, let alone the free world.
