Chris Wallace Gets Real

By The Daily Dish

Oct 19 2008, 12:56 PM ET

Does McCain even understand the insinuations he is putting out there? Or does he understand all too well and want to win anyway? If he wins this way, he will be unable to be president of all Americans. He is delegitimizing his own presidency in advance:

And why does McCain keep missing the point on Lewis? John Lewis said the crowds at McCain's and Palin's events recalled the crowds at George Wallace's. And they do. He wasn't calling McCain a segregationist - McCain's umbrage is at a straw man. And Obama did distance himself from the Wallace comparison almost immediately. SO McCain is lying about that too. Is there any shred of his reputation he cannot still trash?
