I don't know about that one way or the other. When I saw McCain's gaffe, it just made me see how vulnerable he is to manipulation by forces nimbler and more clever than he is. It goes back to having a president (Bush) in office, who delegated responsibilities to others and simultaneously abdicated his own responsibilities for oversight.

does it not show his side of the personality that Americans want to see? I think that willingness to accept correction is a good quality in anyone. I like it in a president, particularly. Don't like the original gaffe much, but with a lot of people in high places, and low places, you don't dare correct them.
