It’s doubtful that “Veterans for McCain” contains many vets who actually served with him.

I know one Navy vet who served with him, and he definitely would not vote for him. The vet is all too aware of McCain’s temper and says he’d be afraid to have McCain’s finger on the nuclear button. (McCain’s nickname at the Academy was “McNasty.”)

One more thing: I really didn’t see a lot of MSM denounce the NYT story on McCain. Chris Matthews, maybe, but he’s hardly representative of the press at large. Some days, he hangs onto his job by his fingernails.

As for talk radio and Rush, they’re doing just fine, although I can understand how Pajamas’ correspondent might want to bad-mouth him and try to persuade people that he’s irrelevent. The correspondent has his own ax to grind, after all.
