Obama attacks McCain because he got attacked by Obama....Huh?

Yesterday morning Wesley Clarke came out on CBS an attacked John McCain as not worthy of the presidency because he had been shot down in Viet Nam. Even Bob Schieffer thought that it was bizarre that Clarke was attacking McCain on competence when no matter how you look at it, McCain frankly makes Obama look like a child in terms of experience.

But what I think is far more interesting is the Obama "Patriotism" speech today trashing Clarke and acting like he is above the fray. This entire episode was and is staged and McCain doesn't even get it. Score one for the "new politics". Go out and trash the other guy to overshadow your own faults and then blame him. If McCain wasn't so pathetic and unprepared on this I would feel bad for him.

Hmmmm.
