This kind of statement by Republicans encourages me to add another rule to some rules I have come up with which are tell-tale signs a campaign is in trouble.
Rule One: When a campaign starts attacking the media, things aren’t going well.
Rule Two: When a campaign says the polls are wrong, things aren’t very good.
Rule Three: When a campaign says “the only poll that counts is the one on election day” usually means a campaign is about to lose.
Now we could probably add a new one: when partisans start saying let the candidate be the candidate, it means things are off course.
What will McCain and Palin do at this point? My guess is the campaign will encourage Palin to make some off the wall accusations at the debate in order to get under Biden’s skin, and hope he makes a mistake by engaging her too passionately.
Or maybe McCain will fly to Afghanistan and look for Osama Bin Laden himself. You just never know.
At this point, this race is Obama’s to lose, and absent a significant mistake it will be tough for McCain to win. McCain’s destiny is no longer in his hands. Though in a strange election, strange things can happen.
