Everyone has someone in your family who absolutely HATES losing, even if it’s a game of Parcheesi. That person may be the friendliest guy/gal on the block when a game is not on the line, but during a game, they become possessed.

McCain reminds me of someone like that. He hates losing. You got a glimpse of that after he knew Bush had won the 2000 SC Primary. He blew by Maria Schriver like a bull in a china closet. He was angrier than heck. That event reinforced the template that he was a hothead.

So far this campaign, he has acting very coolly - I think to blunt the hothead accusation. But I’ve been waiting to see that kind of hot head intensity in this campaign, but controlled and aimed at Obama. I hope he’s starting to show it finally.

I have to think he's learned a lot since then. Besides, how cool would you act if you knew you were going to win. There are several story lines slowly converging, just in time for the election. Not just the economic crisis story which Obama is tied to, there are the raids on ACORN in several states, Rezko appears to be making a deal, the Ayers connection has become too impossible to ignore, Jerome Corsi, author of The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality, was detained in Kenya, which means more will read the book, the large foreign campaign donations that are raising questions and more and more.

I don't agree with McCain on several issues and wanted someone else to be the nominee, but I very much respect him. For such an easy target as Obama, I'm starting to believe that McCain's working to a well timed missile and gun lock Obama and his campaign to shoot them down on election day. If he does it right, the corruption on the left will be impossible to miss and even for the msm. We all see it from here.
