I have been giving McCain the benefit of the doubt. He’s shown he’s willing to say almost anything to get elected, but I thought there might be lines he would not cross. Well, he brought up the Weather Underground issue on his own today, so he’s making it clear that Karl Rove tactics will be front and center in his campaign.

Given that John McCain actively sought the endorsement of a right wing nut who has called the Catholic Church the “great whore,” he might want to be careful about going down this path.
