McCain goes almost 100 percent negative. If that doesn't do something to the polls in the next week, what has he got left? The answer, I'm afraid, is nothing but his fathomless narcissism and vanity.I remember well when McCain blocked funding to National Airport (immediately adjacent to Washington) and Dulles Airport because Congress refused, for safety reasons, to open up National to longer flights via America West so they could fly nonstop from Washington to Phoenix. This meant that McCain either had to shlep out to Dulles in the far-flung Virginia suburbs when he wanted to go home on Congressional breaks, or be delayed with connecting flights. So he blocked funding to both airports for a time. Nice.
I think that incident, alone, reveals volumes about his fathomless narcissism and vanity, not to mention the vindictiveness that does not always stay under his surface.
