McCain campaign: We got sleazy to get press attention

A fascinating admission from the McCain campaign, that they chose to leave the high road, to chuck overboard John McCain's "maverick" status, because the McCain campaign thought that they could get more media coverage by being sleazy, dishonorable liars. Hell of a thing for a campaign to admit, especially a campaign centered around the honor of a former POW. Apparently when the going gets tough, the first thing John McCain sacrifices is his honor. A disturbing pattern is emerging of McCain chucking the high road, abandoning his morals and ethics, when instant gratification comes knocking. It's not the definition of hero. It's the definition of reckless.
