Clever McCain Campaigning

I think this is a good move by John McCain to capitalize on the media's love affair with Barack Obama. In other political contexts -- when McCain was thought of as a "maverick" Republican, to be exact -- McCain was the media darling. Now that he's the party's nominee, and Barack seems to have an intoxicating hold on the media, it must be frustrating. Probably the best thing McCain could do, all things considered.
