A couple of days ago I said that the only way McCain can win is to quit. This morning I read William Kristol's column in the NY Times and, while he doesn't suggest McCain quit, he does say that McCain needs to get rid of his current campaign staff, stop the negative ads, and start over. I bet McCain wishes he could get a redo on the VP pick. Also.
There are a couple of potential pitfalls for McCain, should he choose to go this route. One is that it could look like he's lurching toward yet another strategy. Which he would be; it'll just look obvious. The other potential pitfall is that the strategy described by Kristol would require some discipline on McCain's part to stay on message and remain relatively positive. I just don't see that happening. And who knows what Palin would do. Todd will probably get mad and try to bully McCain into firing Wooten.
I think I will also announce a dramatic change in my campaign strategy sometime before Wednesday's debate. I may still quit, unless McCain's lurch beats me to it, but I need to have another option at the ready. Considering the response Palin received while dropping the puck at the Flyers' game this past weekend, maybe I should go for the hockey vote. I'll have more on my new strategy tomorrow.
Only 22 days to Obama-Jama!
