Kevin Drum foresees a future Mutiny on The Straight Talk Express:
[G]o ahead, call me an optimist — I suspect that at some point there’s going to be a press backlash against McCain. His media image is a bubble, sustained by a sort of childlike faith, and once that faith starts to wobble — something that may already have started — the bubble is likely to pop. Before long, I suspect that a lot of reporters are going to start recognizing his faux openness as more faux than open.
What? McCain’s “base”?” Turn on him? What’s next? AWOLS from “Obama’s media army?”
