Patterico: It's Over, Because the McCain Camp Refuses to Fight Back on Fannie, Freddie, and CRA

As that US News blog post said, the McCain camp thinks it's "too complicated" to explain the current crisis to the American people, so they're going to let Barack Obama claim it was all the Republicans' and McCain's fault.

I said McCain would turn towards these topics after the bailout passed. I appear to have been very wrong. The McCain camp is choosing a frankly insane strategy of allowing Obama to destroy him every day without a peep of objection.

What will they run on? Character, patriotism.

" but you are absolutely nuts if you think McCain wants to abolish the Departments of Energy and Education as well as Social Security. That's just left-wing kook speak for "our way or the highway.""

Well, he has taken those positions.

Of course, that was then and today is a new day...

He is now on the record for slashing Medicare to help pay for his health plan.

But, the week is still young.
