McCain, Bush, and 2008
Who could blame John McCain for napping during the president's State of the Union address, as a video seemed to show? It may be that the "the video brouhaha" was "short-lived and misguided ... considering that he wasn’t sleeping after all," but whether he was "simply glancing down at his copy of the speech and reading along" or catching a few winks between lackluster applause lines, a demonstrated lack of interest in the president's remarks might help McCain promote his independence from the president. Siding with the unpopular Bush hasn't helped McCain convince voters that he's a better option than a Democratic candidate in 2008.
