I think Atrios has this just about right:
The Next Six Months
Some Republican or conservative group runs a dumb ad.
John McCain nobly distances himself from it.
Cable news spends all day talking about it and showing it for free.
Rinse. Repeat.
Like I'm sure all of you were, I was shocked, SHOCKED! to find out that the ultra-super-duper liberal dirty fucking hippie socialist media was hiring ex-military personnel to talk about the war only after the list had been vetted by the Pentagon in advance. Way to stick it to the man, liberal media!
Oh, wait a minute...
