If you simply judged the last three months of the 2008 campaign by which campaign "won" the daily news cycle, McCain came out ahead...

To which I responded: "Don't be so quick to pat yourself on the back, Chuckie...The blogosphere (despite the attempts of First Read and Politico to muscle in) is the REAL reason why...(we)...learned that the Clintons also had ties to Wright and Rezko, that there were...controversial clergypeople in the McCain/Palin camp, and that Joe the Plumber WASN'T a plumber."

Unlike Todd, however, I am willing to be fair and balanced enough to praise him for NOT busting out laughing when Mitt Romney suggested that he should not be attacked on "personal" issues like his tax and business records!

P.S. Has his esteemed colleague Rachel Maddow weighed in on this?
