TalkingPointsMemo
John McCain’s campaign chief Steve Schmidt, who hired a former U.S. attorneys appointed by the Bush administration to replace another fired during the scandal, dismissed the attorneys controversy as “nonsense and politics,” notes Josh Marshall. Schmidt’s remark is more evidence that McCain is “McSame” as Bush, Marshall deduces. An Associated Press story that dings Barack Obama for criticizing McCain’s balanced budget promise fails to note that McCain has offered no numbers or plan to achieve his goal, Marshall writes.
