Mark Shields does commentary on PBS as the designated Democrat. So it's not surprising that he panned McCain's speech.

He has always been paired up with a discussion partner porported to be a Republican, to supposedly give two opposing sides to a political story. The so-called Republicans he has partnered with over the years include David Gergen, Paul Gigot, and David Brooks. Gergen worked in the Clinton White House and Brooks (now Shields' opposite on PBS) works for the New York Slimes. So those two are RINOS at best. Gigot is probably a real Republican of sorts, but kind of a "moderate" currently employed primarily by the Wall Street Journal.
